About the Kelley MS in Finance degree

Employers are interested in connecting with recruits who have unique backgrounds and perspectives—people who bring something new to solving problems, who approach their work differently. You'll stand out with our STEM-designated MS in Finance, which enables you to build on your undergraduate degree with in-demand skills in finance.

You can complete the MSF degree in less than one year or in 18 months if you choose to do the extended program model which includes an internship.

No business degree required

The Kelley MS in Finance curriculum complements an undergraduate degree in another field—such as liberal arts, engineering, political science, and economics—with advanced training in finance. The power of the degree lies in this pairing—a rarity highly valued by Kelley’s large network of recruiting companies.

Business Foundations Boot Camp

Designed for students without an undergraduate business degree, the Business Foundations Boot Camp is an intensive four-week program that provides exposure to core business disciplines such as finance, accounting, marketing, operations, strategic management, and quantitative methods. Starting in June, Boot Camp will help you gain the broader business perspective that financial analysts need to be effective in their work. Complete the pre-application advising form to set up a meeting with MSF program staff to review requirements.

Areas of expertise

You will develop skills such as:

  • Risk management
  • Asset allocation
  • Capital budgeting
  • Financial modeling
  • Treasury management
  • Capital structure analysis and management
  • Asset and company valuation
  • Currency management
