The MS in Financial Statistics and Risk Management (FSRM) at Rutgers University is a highly competitive STEM-designated program that attracts top students from around the United States and the world. The 10-course 30 credit program is designed to be completed in 3 semesters.
Established in 2011, the FSRM program is among the earliest quant programs to introduce financial data science. The FSRM program is designed to be at the intersection of Data Science, Quantitative Finance, and Financial Risk Management. This versatility gives our graduates a wide set of skills that make them eligible to take a wide selection of jobs in quantitative finance and banking upon graduation, both in the front office and the middle office. Our alumni have found positions in trading, derivatives, financial risk management, and data science & analytics. Some of our earliest graduates have been hired as data scientists at top tech firms.
Among the unique characteristics of enrolling in the Rutgers FSRM program is the ability to take elective graduate courses in our sister programs: The Rutgers Mathematical Finance program, Rutgers Quantitative Finance program, and the MS in Data Science program. In addition, Rutgers graduate students are eligible to participate in the Princeton-Rutgers Exchange Program. Given the above, its proximity to New York City and Rutgers’ nearly 500,000 alumni, the FSRM program has a unique value proposition among quant programs in the US.
Career Development: The program has established the Office of Professional Programs that is dedicated to the professional development and career advancement of FSRM students as well as to building corporate relationships with potential employers. The office is led by two Wall Street veterans with decades of combined experience. The Office of Professional Programs offers highly specialized professional development services that include resume workshops, one-on-one career strategy sessions, interview preparation and exclusive internship and full-time job postings. For International students, FSRM is a day-1 CPT program that allows foreign students the ability to take a relevant internship(s) as soon as they join the program without having the need to wait a full academic year.
