“The connections to industry professionals that I\u2019ve made in the program are such a great help. It\u2019s really helped me develop my soft skills on top of my analytical skills. Plus, being a part of such a small class allows for one-on-one conversations with professors, and Queens students are able to go so far because of the amazing support from faculty.”<\/p>\n– Anna de Boer \u201925, MSFA Student<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\"MSFA<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Queens is the first university in North Carolina to offer the Master of Science in Finance & Analytics (MSFA). Our faculty collaborated with top local industry leaders, such as Accenture, Ally Financial, and Bank of America, to develop this graduate program for leaders who want to blend analytics with finance to ensure companies make better business decisions. We partner with these same industry leaders on the MSFA Board of Advisors<\/a>, giving you access to the top business and analytical minds of the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Find mentors in Charlotte industry leaders. Practice your skills through executive-in-residence programs. Expand your network through our guest lecture series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The MSFA program is a designated STEM program, allowing international students to apply for a 24-month STEM extension of OPT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
