Master of Science in Finance

Loyola’s Master of Science in Finance (MSF) program builds upon prior degrees in business, accounting, economics, engineering, liberal arts and sciences. Our students often acquire the MSF as they prepare for many of the professional certifications required today, such as the Chartered Financial Analyst or Certified Financial Planner examinations.

Taught by a highly-regarded full-time faculty and professionals from the public and private sectors, Loyola’s Master of Science in Finance emphasizes applied knowledge through the utilization of modeling, and the study of global and regulatory dimensions of the finance profession. Corporate responsibility, ethics, and regard for the individual are value-added components to Loyola’s rich learning environment, delivered in the spirit of quality Jesuit education.

Financial expertise, in depth knowledge, and practical, hands-on training have become crucial for the success of companies and for the career of working professionals. Loyola's MSF program meets this demand with a 10-course, 30 credit hour, MSF program delivered in a weekday evening format, at graduate campuses in Timonium and Columbia. The program can be completed in as little as 12-15 months of intensive study, or in 18 – 30 months of continuous part-time enrollment. Considerable personal investment is expected of our students. Our experience suggests that these benefits are long-term and significant and translate into your professional development as you become a highly-trained and competent finance professional.
