New Master in Finance Program

I'm Doug Diamond. I'm happy to share the news that we've started a new program of Master's in Finance. So our new program is intended for recent college graduates with a quant background who want to build on these skills to start a career in finance. This program will give them an advantage over their peers. So why would you want to study finance at Chicago Booth? At Booth, we don't just teach industry best practices. In many cases, we think you can do better than industry best practices. Many of the things that we recommended have become the new normal. There are a bunch of examples of how the new normal has evolved from our research. Index funds, market efficiency, factor investing, all of those came out of research that started here. So the financial research we do at Chicago Booth has lots of real-world applications. Several faculty members at Booth have gone on and have a big impact in the world of central banking. A large number of Booth alums who studied finance here have gone on to do major innovations in financial markets. So if you come to Chicago Booth, you'll get a chance to think about the future of finance.
