What is the relationship between the Master in Finance program and the Master in Financial Engineering?
The Master in Financial Engineering was a precursor of the current Master in Finance of the Bendheim Center. It was a one-year program and students were enrolled in the Department of Operations Research and Financial Engineering (ORFE) which was granting the degree. In order to avoid duplication and confusion, this program was transitioned into the new Master in Finance. Its contents represent one part of the MFin program, namely the Financial Engineering Track. While MFin students have an opportunity to focus primarily on financial engineering if they choose to, the MFin program covers all of finance, not just financial engineering.
