The Master of Science in Fintech is a part-time, one-year program designed for working professionals. It combines online learning with in-person modules held in New York and at rotating global locations. This format allows students to continue working in their home countries between modules, requiring approximately seven weeks away from the office over the course of the year. Students are expected to dedicate an average of 20-25 hours per week to online learning between the in-person sessions. The program provides opportunities for experiential learning and networking with industry professionals. It is a STEM-designated program, although its part-time nature means students are not eligible for OPT.
