Investment Management Academy, one of the Stanley C. Golder Academies, is an academic program that participates in the management of the Illini Capital Management fund, a student managed investment fund established within the College of Business. Our student members, under the direction of Mike Murphy and Sterling Raskie, conduct industry research and present investment recommendations. Students create and manage a portfolio of over 1.25 million through qualitative and quantitative research.
