Master of Science [M.S] [Quantitative Finance] From Hofstra University

Students are provided with a strong conceptual understanding of financial theory and analytical techniques. An emphasis is placed on applying this foundation to analyze and develop analytical and quantitative solutions to contemporary financial problems.

In addition to satisfying the residency requirements for MS programs (see below), students admitted into the MS in quantitative finance program should have completed appropriate college-level course work in financial accounting (3 s.h.), microeconomics (3 s.h.), and macroeconomics (3 s.h.). Students lacking one or more of these admission requirements will be able to satisfy them by taking courses at Hofstra (which will not count toward the program requirements).?

MS in quantitative finance students are encouraged to complete Bloomberg Essentials prior to completion of their degree. No degree credit is given for Bloomberg Essentials, nor is tuition charged. Students who would like additional information should contact the department chairperson.
