How the Lab Works

Bloomberg for Education gives you an advantage by empowering you with the hands-on knowledge and real-world experience you will need to compete in the business world.

Bloomberg has one of the most extensive databases of information available in the financial world. With access to the same data as Bloomberg’s top clients in the market, the Bloomberg Lab helps students move from the theoretical to the practical.
