This dual degree program is a collaborative effort between NYU Stern School of Business and NYU Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences. By combining business education with advanced quantitative training, the program prepares graduates for competitive roles in quantitative risk analysis, portfolio management, and derivatives trading - including pricing, structuring, and hedging strategies.
The 72-credit MS in Mathematics in Finance/MBA curriculum spans two and a half years, with coursework split between both institutions. The first year is completed at Courant, followed by a year at Stern, with the final semester allowing for classes at both schools. Enrollment begins with two semesters at Courant before transitioning to three semesters at Stern. This program requires full-time commitment and does not accommodate part-time students or accept transfer credits from other institutions.
