Trading Room Solutions and Campus-Wide Trading Contests

Colleges and universities can take advantage of a Stock-Trak custom solution to fulfill the specific needs of their business schools and/or trading rooms. For example, university trading rooms can developmodules and an order management interface toward a true "Trading Desk" while large finance faculties can use our white-label solutions to develop inter-department trading challenges. Stock- Trak will build a branded trading site that reflects your university's layout, logos and color schemes.

By incorporating Stock-Trak into your academic institution's business program and/or trading room, you will graduate all students -- not just finance majors -- who are both knowledgeable about and have gained hands-on experience with the financial markets. Take advantage of our competitive prices so the majority of your finance faculty can integrate a stock-market project into classes such as the Introduction to Corporate Financing, Banking, International Finance, Financial Statement Analysis and any class that includes financial markets in its curriculum.
