The Cardell Financial Center connects students to the finance world with state-of-the-art
technology that provides real-time data and news. Located on the first floor of the
University Center on Main, the center features 12 Bloomberg trading terminals, four
personal computers, a projector, and two LCD monitors. The adjacent Ted Engel Room
provides printing services for students.

such as the CQA Investment Challenge and the Community Bank Case Study Competition. Other business students benefit from
the center’s numerous resources as well. The prestigious CQA Institute Advanced Investment Management course, an annual two-week boot camp hosted by Wilkes University, conducts classes
