Programme Overview

The Master of Science in Quantitative Finance (MQF) by coursework is a full-time programme to be completed within 12 months. It caters to a need identified by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) - to groom a critical mass of specialists in quantitative finance, which is the objective underlying the second phase of MAS's Finance Scholarship Programme. 

Participants can pursue their master studies in two ways: (1) The Singapore-Based Track, or (2) The International Track.

For both tracks, the same core courses and programme fees apply.

SINGAPORE-BASED TRACK

Participants will take all their courses at SMU (Singapore) and obtain an SMU MQF Degree.

This is the preferred path for those who are already working in Singapore or who are unable to spend four months in London at the international track. On top of being Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) and European for Management Development Quality Improvement System (EQUIS) accredited, the Lee Kong Chian School of Business is also highly ranked for its research productivity, teaching effectiveness, graduate employability and international reputation.

INTERNATIONAL TRACK

Participants will take their Term 1 and Term 4 courses at SMU (Singapore), and Term 2 and Term 3 courses at Bayes Business School (London, UK), and graduate with a Joint MQF degree from both institutions.
