Distinctly Quantitative
Combining Data Science and Financial Modeling
The Rady Master of Finance prepares you to analyze the large — and often multiple — real-time data sets that drive financial decision-making and risk management. Many of the empirical methods you’ll use have emerged from UC San Diego’s own world-renowned econometrics research. This emphasis on empirical data-driven methods sets the Rady degree apart from other Master of Finance programs.
And because the financial world runs on collaboration, we’ve developed a team-based approach to learning that prepares you for a career in the industry. You’ll graduate technically proficient and ready to be a sought-after colleague, collaborator and incisive decision-maker.
“My Life at Rady has been amazing. I’ve had the chance to meet some fantastic people who have a passion for finance and are extremely smart.”- Noah Conlon, MFin '22
