The MS in Global Commerce & Finance (MSGCF) provides robust training in quantitative analysis using applied econometrics, quantitative economics, agents-based/predictive modeling, computer simulations, and visualization that can be applied to international business, economics, and political interactions.As global economic integration expands, sound financial decisions in the public and private sectors cannot be based solely on domestic considerations. The MSGCF program augments rigorous study in economic theory and analysis with deep examination of the cross-cutting global, regional, and local issues affecting business. Curriculum draws on economic theories, applied econometrics, quantitative economics, predictive modeling, and political economy to understand global economic and financial interactions. Hands-on training in quantitative research gives our students a competitive edge, allowing them unique insight into international finance and business that takes into account the evolving relationship between commerce and international politics and policy. Our transdisciplinary approach creates thoughtful problem solvers who know when to reach across academic boundaries.
