“The Cutler Center allows professors and students to experience the same technologies that the world’s leading banks, corporations, and government agencies use on a daily basis. This real-world experience gives Babson students the competitive edge to succeed in finance.”

– John Bailer ’92, CFA, Deputy Head of Equity Income, Portfolio Manager, Newton Investment Management Group

MESSAGE FROM THE MANAGING DIRECTOR

The 2022-23 academic year was filled with memorable moments, both inside and outside the classroom, for Babson finance students.

The Cutler Center hosted a wide range of panel discussions, fireside chats, and other thought leadership events for students, alums, and finance community members. FinTech continued to be a popular topic of interest. Our offerings included a lively panel discussion on embedded finance as part of Boston FinTech Week and a fintech startup pitch competition where our undergraduate students pitched their ideas to an esteemed group of fintech professionals for the opportunity to win cash prizes from our sponsor, BlueSnap. We also hosted fireside chats with Jean Hynes of Wellington Management and Michael Mauboussin of Morgan Stanley as part of our Distinguished Speaker Series. Read more about these events and others in this report.

The Center also offered several experiential learning programs. One of our most popular programs, the 8-week Private Equity Seminar Series, was approved as an undergraduate course designed for students interested in pursuing a career in private equity. The course will be taught by Adjunct Professor Jaime d’Almeida and a talented group of alumni who have delivered the curriculum over the last two years.

The finance lab continued to be integrated into several undergraduate and graduate courses. These courses, which include Financial Data Analysis and Practice, Financial Trading Strategies, and Fixed Income, integrate the data and analytical tools available through the lab. The Center also hosted two full-day workshops designed to improve students’ financial modeling and programming skills. We partnered with Wall Street Prep, Gutenberg Research, and the Marque Group to deliver these workshops. When not used as a classroom, the Babson Finance Association and SPEAR IB used the lab for their seminars and events.

Outside the classroom, our students continued to excel in many competitions. A group of undergraduate students in the Babson College Fund won the local CFA Institute’s Equity Research Challenge. It is the fifth time in seven years that Babson has won. This success rate is a testament to the skills our students develop in the program and the benefits of having industry mentors. Our finance students also took center stage at commencement, where they were honored for their outstanding work. The undergraduate Senior Awards ceremony was highlighted by Joyce Wang ’23, being presented with the prestigious Roger W. Babson Award for her excellence in scholarship, co-curricular activities, and leadership. Nathan Watts ’23 was also awarded the Carroll W. Ford Scholarship Award as class valedictorian. Glenn Migliozzi, Assistant Professor of Practice, was selected as the Undergraduate Faculty of the Year by the Class of 2023. Glenn has more than 30 years of practical experience and teaches courses in Personal Finance, Fixed Income, and Alternative Investments.

In closing, I would like to highlight the career placement statistics for the Class of 2022. Among the undergraduate class, 27.6% of students secured a job in the financial services industry, making it the most popular sector for the entire class. Notably, the starting salary for those in the finance industry was $78,358, higher than the class average. For the graduate class, all students enrolled in the Master of Science in Finance program secured employment within six months of graduation. As we reflect on these and other highlights over the past academic year, we thank you for your continued support of the Cutler Center as we further our mission of advancing Babson’s innovative and practical approach to finance education, improving our students’ marketability.
