Master of Science in Finance (MSF)

To accommodate increasing demands of BiMBA students and alumni for post-MBA study and to meet the market demand for highly internationalized business leaders and financial talents, BiMBA launched the Master of Science in Global Finance (MSGF) program in 2010 in collaboration with Fordham University in the New York City, United States. And the program is changed to Master of Science in Finance (MSF) since 2022.

 

This program is also aimed at expanding students’ career options. It will help those students who already hold a management position develop a strong ability to implement corporate financial goals and formulate financial strategies. Those who have keen interest in the financial industry and consider going into the field as professionals are also suitable participants of the program.

 

Fordham University is located in the State of New York, USA. Fordham has three campuses: the Lincoln Center Campus in midtown Manhattan in New York City, the Rose Hill campus in the Bronx in New York City, and the Westchester campus in Westchester. Fordham University Gabelli School of Business (GSB) is located at the Lincoln Center campus in New York City, blocks away from Central Park, Columbus Circle, and Time Square.

 

Fordham University’s Gabelli School of Business, boasting of strong and rich teaching resources in Finance, was ranked the 21stin the ranking of Best Business Schools in MBA Finance Specialty and 14th in International Business by U.S. News and World Report. GSB ranked Tier 1 in North America MBA by CEO Magazine.
