Program description
Masters in Finance
Keeping pace with the complexities of today's world and the nature of the discipline, the Masters in Finance is offered exclusively in English, for an international audience . Our commitment to the global arena is also present in the annual field trip to Frankfurt (flight and accommodation included in the tuition fees), in which students and faculty visit organizations like the ECB (European Central Bank), EIOPA, Goethe University, Deutsche Bundesbank, and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.
Over the last 5 years we have attended presentations from high ranking representatives of companies such as BASF, Deutsche Lufthansa, SAP, EY, or Helaba Bank. This is certainly an unforgettable experience for all who take part in it. It is also possible to spend 1 semester in the 2nd year of the masters abroad, in an exchange program (just a few examples: at Goethe University in Germany, at Bocconi University in Italy, at EDHEC in France, or at Fundação Getulio Vargas in Brazil).
With this masters you can become a successful professional in the financial world, either with financial institutions or in the corporate sector, in any part of the world. To the best of our knowledge, there is 100% employment of our MFinance graduates. Holders of ISEG Lisbon's MFinance are currently working in banks, banking and supervisory authorities (such as the Bank of Portugal, the European Central Bank, CMVM, BNP Paribas), the Big 4 consulting/auditing services companies, in the corporate sector, etc - there are exciting job market opportunities for our graduate students in Finance, both in Portugal and abroad.
