Structured as an introductory finance degree, the MSF provides a distinctive blend of financial principles and hands-on quantitative techniques from a leading public institution.
The Texas McCombs Master of Science in Finance program features globally recognized faculty who will equip you with essential skills for the finance sector. Mastering the application of theory to solve practical challenges will expand your professional prospects with potential employers. Since this program serves as an initial finance qualification, students with undergraduate finance degrees typically aren't ideal candidates. For inquiries, please reach out to discuss your specific circumstances.
The Practicum experience covers the latter portion of the fall term and the initial segment of the spring term. Participants collaborate directly with corporate sponsors on diverse financial challenges and can specify preferred focus areas for their practicum work early in the fall. Working in small teams guided by the MSF program director, students cultivate valuable connections with industry partners.
Students must have a bachelor’s degree from a regionally accredited institution in the United States or a comparable degree from a foreign academic institution. A grade point average of at least 3.00 in upper-division (junior- and senior-level) coursework and in any graduate work already completed.
The minimum scores considered acceptable for admission by the Graduate School are:
TOEFL: 79 on the Internet-based test (iBT)
IELTS: An overall band of 6.5 on the Academic Examination
