Abstract

Recent year, school of economics and management or school of business in many universities discuss in-depth about the necessity and importance of setting up finance courses. Especially for non-economics majors in school of economics and management or school of business, whether finance courses should be regarded as required or core courses has been a very heated debate when preparing the 2016 teaching plans. We take 6 undergraduate non-economics majors of Beijing Information sciences & Technology University as example, combined with 112 non-economics majors in other 41 universities, and draw the conclusion that most majors should have finance courses. At the same time, the empirical data shows that the finance courses play an important role in management-like majors.
