Program Overview

The Master of Science in Financial Analytics (MSF) program, offered by the Lucas College and Graduate School of Business, prepares students for careers in finance units of non-financial firms. The program emphasizes the knowledge necessary to succeed in corporate finance roles. It teaches students to develop an evidence-based mindset and apply technical finance concepts to corporate financial planning & analysis problems. The course work is structured to combine accounting and finance knowledge, as well as provide experience with the relevant technology and prepare well rounded professionals for careers in corporate finance roles. In addition to technical and analytical skills, the program emphasizes the development of communication skills, professional development, and career readiness.

The 30-unit MSF program offers two tracks depending on the academic pace desired by the students. The full-time track allows students to complete the MSF within 12 months and the part-time track allows students to complete the degree within 24 months. This program accommodates professionals with demanding life and work schedules. The MSF program is taught using a hybrid delivery format combining online and in-person class sessions. Classes meet evenings and Saturdays in eight-week sessions year-round. In-person class sessions are held on the SJSU campus. The MSF is open to candidates who graduated with business or nonbusiness majors.
