In teaching, our division offers a highly popular range of Finance courses that meet the demands of Singapore as a financial center as well as the international financial arena. Students can choose to focus on any of these 3 tracks: Corporate and Investment Banking, Wealth Management, and Asset Management. The programme is also recognised as a CFA Program Partner, giving our graduates a head-start in their preparation for the CFA qualification.

We also offer a niche undergraduate programme in actuarial science, which takes in students with high analytical and numerical abilities. This programme provides comprehensive and in-depth training for those students who wish to pursue a career in the reputable actuary profession. Our students who successfully complete the requirements of this programme can qualify for up to eight exemptions from the Core Technical Subjects of the Institute of Actuaries, UK.

Our Master of Science in Financial Engineering (MFE) programme is a highly rigorous and focused programme and is offered in collaboration with Carnegie Mellon University. The programme equips students with the skills required to tackle challenging problems in high-technology finance, such as risk management, product structuring, quantitative asset management, quantitative trading, quantitative research and financial information technology. The admission into this programme is very selective and the average GMAT of successful applicants is around 700.

Our PhD Programme is a full-time doctoral program with coursework and a comprehensive examination. Recent placements include the University of New South Wales and the University of Western Australia.
