Blue Chips and Bull Markets : SU Dedicates New Starliper Applied Finance Lab
On September 21 , Stevenson dedicated the new Dennis A . Starliper Applied Finance Lab , located in the Brown School of Business and Leadership . Named for faculty member Dennis Starliper , who donated the funds to create the lab , the Starliper Lab features digital stock tickers and multiple market data displays and serves as a sophisticated teaching and research tool to enhance our students ’ career readiness by developing their command of financial technology platforms and investment decision-making processes .
“ With this space , we ’ re giving our students a unique advantage ,” Starliper said at the dedication . “ The lab is designed to look , feel , and function like a trading desk at an investment or brokerage house , while at the same time serving as a space for learning . It is here where they will have the opportunity to put into motion what they learn in Corporate Finance , Investments , Business Valuation , and Insurance . It is here where the students will explore and test how various financial markets and instruments work . All of this is meant to prepare them for their future careers and graduate studies .”
August 18 was a significant milestone in the history of Stevenson . That rainy summer day , the university welcomed its very first class of doctoral students , the 15 students of Stevenson ’ s inaugural Doctor of Psychology ( Psy . D .) cohort . The students took a campus tour , met with Psychology Department faculty , and dodged a few afternoon rain drops , too , during their orientation . Based on the Greenspring campus , the five-year Psy . D . program prepares students to become clinical psychologists through classroom instruction , clinical placements , and internship experiences . Upon completion of the program , Psy . D . students are prepared to sit for licensure exams . Stevenson is currently accepting applicants for its Fall 2022 and Fall 2023 cohorts .
