Program Description
In the MS Finance and Risk Management program, students will gain insight into the economics and finance behind modern business and add critical quantitative skills to their resume.
As a part of the CFA Institute’s University Affiliation Program, a majority of the curriculum reflects the practice of investment management. By graduation, students will be prepared to pass the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) exam and land upper-level finance positions.
Students will have the opportunity to dive deep into special topics like behavioral and political finance and international corporate governance in this hands-on degree. With five specialization options, they can also choose to tailor their degree to focus on commodities, risk management and insurance, economics, financial analysis, or general finance.
Quantitative skills are integrated throughout the curriculum. At the Commodities and Finance Lab, students will be able to participate in commodity market analysis, futures and derivatives trading, and portfolio management. Computer terminals are outfitted with the following software:
- Morningstar
- CQG
- IHS Markit
