Curriculum

The Practicum is an intensive program that spans the last half of the fall semester and the first half of the spring semester. Students work directly with sponsoring companies on a wide variety of finance problems.

Students may indicate an area of interest for their practicum project in early fall. Students work in small groups under the supervision of the MSF program director to complete the project, earning practical experience and developing a strong relationship with corporations and potential employers.

The MSF program director and Finance Department faculty work with various finance-related organizations to design projects that are valuable to MSF students and benefit the sponsoring group. Projects are designed to be accomplished within the Practicum time frame and culminate in a written report and presentation of work to the sponsoring company and program faculty.

This course will introduce concepts and theories of modern risk management and addresses the various risk mitigation techniques used in private enterprises, public corporations, financial institutions and multinational firms.

This course is focused on three main FinTech areas in which technology is driving changes in the way financial services are provided: (i) Lending/Banking services, (ii) wealth management (iii) Trading. The course is going to provide specific coverage and examples of developments from (1) payments (2) peer-to-peer lending (3) robo-advising (4) algo/quantitative trading. In each of these areas, we start by analyzing the marketing place, the incumbents, and the business case and strategies of the incoming technology players. We then turn to understand the role data and analytics plays in driving the technology-based services. Guest speakers augment the discussion by offering their perspective on future trends in each of these areas. 

This course covers advanced accounting topics related to inter-corporate investments, mergers and acquisitions and consolidation of controlled entities, both domestic and foreign.
