information about the club

The finance, insurance, and real estate club is an on-campus club for those students who are interested in the related business fields. You don't need to be a business major to join, just have a desire to learn more about personal finance, insurance, or real estate.

The club meets once every two weeks and there is usually free pizza and soda. We discuss upcoming events, internship/job opportunities, and how to accelerate your interest in the area.

Throughout the course of the semester there are many opportunities for members to get involved. Our club participates in a stock portfolio challenge, similar to a fantasy sports league online, and prizes are given out to those members who end with the greatest investment returns. Not only is this a great way to learn about stock investments, it's easy and fun too!.

When it comes to searching for internships and job opportunities, the club makes it easy to get connected. Our semi-annual trip to Seattle and Spokane give you the opportunity to see finance, insurance, & real estate companies first-hand. It's a great way to meet industry professionals face-to-face and make those initial connections.

It's also important to have a great resume! So what are business professionals really looking for on a resume? Our resume building workshop presented by the WSU Student Learning & Advising Center will give you the extra edge professionals want to see. In addition to the travel and workshops, the club also hosts in-house speakers who consist of some of the leading industry professionals in these fields. It's common to have presidents, vice-presidents, managers, and financial entrepreneurs speak at our club meetings. Each bring their own unique insight into the industry and will probably spark your interest in learning more!

Well it sounds like the club does a lot professionally... but do they do anything socially? Sure! Throughout the semester the club hosts golf tournaments, bowling events, fundraising events, and of course our free pizza and soda at club meetings!

See you soon!
