Accounting & Fundamental Analysis

专业详情

The Masters in Accounting and Fundamental Analysis is a full-time three-semester STEM-designated program. It focuses on active, fundamental investing with an emphasis of handling accounting information in investment analysis. Students are exposed to up-to-date research to give them an edge as investors. Research insights and quantitative skills are developed at the PhD level, followed by practical application to equity analysis, credit analysis and investment advisory.

The program begins in early September. To graduate, students must complete a minimum of 10 full-term courses (30 credits) along with a thesis (3 credits). During the fall and spring terms, students enroll in a full course load. In the summer term, students will take reduced coursework and complete the thesis requirement. Students are expected to submit their thesis by the end of the summer so that they can meet the requirements in time for an October graduation. Students who wish to complete industry internships over the summer will be allowed to delay a portion of their coursework and the thesis until the fall term.

Students must complete a minimum of 10 full-term courses (30 credits) and a thesis (3 credits). Students must select three courses from the fundamental analysis kernel (15 credits). Two of the courses must be Accounting PhD seminars. Students take two courses in statistics and econometrics (6 credits) and a PhD-level course offered by the Finance or Economics Division (3 credits).
