CPCD-CN-03 - Understanding Money: Basic Financial Literacy 

Course Description

Key Themes for This Event: Financial Wellbeing, Finances & Funding 

Financial well-being is one of life’s consistent concerns and the Graduate School wants to help you build a strong financial foundation. We continue our Exploring Your Future: Career Options & Life After Graduate School series with a focus on finances. In this session, we will focus on the ways you can manage, save, and spend your money responsibly and sustainably—right now. We will cover basic topics, including how to budget, pay off debt, build credit, conscious spending, choosing a bank, and make the most of your current income. We’ll build on this foundation in the next session, Understanding Money: Advanced Financial Literacy. Lunch will be provided for our in-person attendees afterward in Holloway Commons dining hall! Facilitated by Dr. Mike Ferguson, UNH Graduate School Faculty Fellow and Assistant Professor of Recreation Management & Policy.
