Finance, M.S.
Curriculum
Over the course of three semesters, you will develop and build on basic quantitative skills and analytical approaches to finance.
Our cohort-based approach ensures that all students progress at the same pace, allowing you to feel confident and comfortable in class with your peers. Coursework during your first semester will focus broadly on theory and basic quantitative skills, with an increasing emphasis on practical applications through group-based projects in your second semester. In your final semester, you will draw on tools developed in the classroom and during your summer internship to create interdisciplinary solutions to complex, real-world problems alongside your peers. Start dates for the program are in January and September.
