Description The paper presents the experience of creating a financial trading room at the Scott College of Business at Indiana State University. It is intended to provide commentary and advice for those contemplating building a university financial trading room. It addresses design, construction, project oversight/installation, budget, and more. The paper is a case hiswtory of our path to operating our trading room with regard to hardware/software, vendors, project management, budget issues, operating policies, and so forth. Although we are pleased with the final product represented in our financial trading room, we stubbed a few toes along the way and began making a list of decisions to avoid for the next trading room. For instance, we have made interim configuration changes. Links to the photos of the trading room and vendors appear in the comprehensive references list.
