This course requires you to understand not only finance as it pertains to Western financial culture, but also to explore more fully the financial culture of diverse communities around the world. You will be required to research and compare and contrast a financial perspective from a non-Western culture, religion or geography. You must research current attitudes towards money and wealth, how they developed, how they impact everyday living. In a group setting, prepare an 8–10-page paper on a selected topic, and prepare a 30-minute presentation of what you have learned along with a one-page handout on your topic to present to the class. Material from the presentations and handouts for all teams will be examinable material.
