Study Tracks
While an internship is not required for the STEM-designated Master’s in Finance program, and there is no guarantee of placement, we encourage students to consider the value that internships offer their graduate education.
Full-Time MS in Finance students have two available tracks for the completion of their studies:
-
10-month program of study (non-internship track)
-
17-month program of study (internship track)
-
Internships are not guaranteed - students choosing the option to extend their program will be eligible to seek an internship, but are not guaranteed placement in an internship

** 17-month track

MSF students in the 17-month track will NOT enroll in FIN418 during their first fall term, resulting in a reduced load during their first fall (17 credits). They will complete FIN418 Financial Modeling during the following fall term.
