Master of Science in Banking and Finance

We live in exciting times. Technology, globalization and the New Economy have not only changed the paradigms of business, they have fueled new thinking in management education. The MS in Banking and Finance is committed to creating leaders who are creative thinkers and team players. It provides a specialized training into the various professions of the banking and finance areas: the educational philosophy of the MS is to further a conceptualized and professionalized expertise linked to this particular sector, contrary to the MBA which trains generalists for global management.
The program is not a static set of directives, but a dynamic framework of analytical skills and intellectual tools. It offers students a cross-functional curriculum, entirely in English, which provides an integrated approach to solving banking and financial problems. Participants will gain a better understanding of the interactive nature of making business decisions.

The MS pursues a balanced approach to business education, linking theory to real-world business through teaching and research that are innovative, rigorous, and relevant to career-long learning. Participants mainly study with an award-winning faculty from leading institutions in Europe and North America. The diverse faculty, which maintains close ties with the banking and financial community, continues to advance banking and financial knowledge and practices on many fronts.
