The interdisciplinary Bendheim Center for Finance offers a Master in Finance (M.Fin.) degree. The distinctive feature of Princeton's M.Fin. program is its strong emphasis on nancial and monetary economics, relying on analytical and computational methods. Graduates of this program will come away with fundamental quantitative tools of economic theory, probability, statistics, optimization, computer science, and machine learning. To a greater degree than at any time in the past, there now exists a body of knowledge that is essential for the proper analysis and management of nancial securities, portfolios, and the nancial decisions of the rms. A driving force behind these developments is a lively exchange of ideas between academia and the nancial industry, a collaboration that is the closest parallel in the social sciences to the academic-private sector interactions routinely seen in engineering and the applied sciences. M.Fin. program is intended to prepare students for a wide range of careers both inside and outside the nancial industry, including nancial engineering and risk management, quantitative asset management, macroeconomic and nancial forecasting, quantitative trading, and applied research. The program does not require prior work experience. At a minimum, we expect applicants to have completed one or more internships (for instance over the summer while in college). The Bendheim Center provides comprehensive career assistance to students, including personalized on-campus recruiting with our corporate partners. Our Manager of Career Development also works with students on an individual and group basis to provide support with interview preparation, internships, and job placement.
