At Wuhan University, the Securities Investment course (often part of finance, financial economics, or related programs within the Economics and Management School) teaches students the fundamental principles and practical methods of investing in financial securities. The course covers the nature and characteristics of major financial instruments — such as equities (stocks), bonds, and investment funds — and explains how securities markets operate, including primary issuance and secondary trading. It introduces modern investment theories such as portfolio theory, the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), the Arbitrage Pricing Theory (APT), and market efficiency, which help students understand how returns and risks are analyzed and managed. The curriculum also includes investment analysis techniques, such as fundamental analysis of companies and technical market analysis, and explores investment strategies for both equity and fixed-income securities, teaching students how to plan, evaluate, and implement effective investment decisions in real-world contexts. By blending theory with practical examples and market case studies, the course equips learners with analytical tools and a disciplined approach to assessing risk, making investment decisions, and navigating financial markets — laying a solid foundation for careers in finance, investment management, and financial analysis.
