- The program is ideal for a prospective student with a business/quantitative background (e.g. finance, economics, accounting, mathematics, or engineering undergraduate degree) who is seeking to advance his/her career in the rewarding world of finance. The 12-month, 33-credit hour program will offer a class schedule to accommodate professionals in the work world as well as full-time students. The program aims to impart quantitative, practical knowledge in various areas within the field of finance; deliver hands-on experience applying various financial modeling and valuation concepts, tools, and techniques; and develop communication, critical thinking, analytical ethical decision making, and discipline-specific skills.
- The M.S. in Finance at MTSU is the first such graduate degree at a public institution in the state. The program is affordable and offers accessible scheduling for both full- and part-time students. "Our students who want to pursue a master’s degree right out of their undergraduate program will be able to do that. For individuals out in the workforce, there’s a significant demand for people with master’s level training in finance—especially with Nashville being a financial center," says Dr. Sean Salter, Economic and Finance Department interim chair. Nashville is a hot target for corporation relocations—for example, the UBS recent move from New York—which offer opportunities that require a higher level of training in finance. A lesson from the 2008 financial crisis revealed that many industry professionals need a deeper understanding and knowledge of securities, financial institutions, and markets along with risks involved, Salter adds.
