Every school has different curriculums. Your college should have theirs on line.
The basics of the following will be found as requirement- Accounting at least 15 credits
Statistics-
Business Management
Marketing
Core courses of Finance (at least 15 credits)
Supplemental major courses (less than 10 credits): Specialized Finance courses,economics and math
Information systems for finance and accounting
Software and computer programs
The rest will be the subjects of your choice to major in.
Besides your intro business classes ( 2 semesters of calculus, 2 semesters of economics, statistics, accounting and management) your major courses will be 2 semesters of financial markets, international finance, advanced managerial finance, and 4 electives of your choice. Electives range from insurance and risk management, to corporate finance, to equity trading and to financial planning.
Those are the requirements for my school. Most business programs generally have the same type of courses but may just call them different names.
