Each year, FEI and the Robert Day Scholars Program sponsors a trip to New York during the final week of the winter break. Nine juniors and nine sophomores travel to New York to visit firms representative of different sectors of the financial industry, connect with industry professionals and CMC alumni.

FEI provides access to the S&P Global Market Intelligence Capital IQ database to CMC students on computers in the FEI Lab (Bauer Center 3rd floor) and computer labs across campus (Poppa, Ryal, South) marked as having Capital IQ access. (Log in credentials should be on the computer.) Though access is restricted to Lab use, students can utilize the platform to pull data and conduct research. Capital IQ also offers a Help Desk function to respond to student queries directly. Look for Capital IQ icons in campus computer labs.

The Claremont McKenna College Student Investment Fund (CMC SIF) was founded in 1974 when an alumnus of the college donated approximately $500 in securities. His intention was to give qualified students an opportunity to learn the basics of investment management using a “trial by fire” approach while creating value for the college’s endowment.
