Your Future in New York City
Columbia’s location in New York City cannot be underestimated when choosing an MS program in Finance. The city fuels much of what happens at the School, and the School feeds back into the city through current students, new graduates, and visiting faculty.
Since its inception, Columbia Business School has maintained a symbiotic relationship with New York City. It is s the nexus for business research and the implementation of ideas that impact industries. Columbia Business School’s proximity to an extraordinary concentration of business leaders means that our students get constant access to the best minds in business, who regularly visit to teach, speak, and meet with students. (In fact, no business school has more on-campus visits than we do.) Columbia Business School alumni have found their place in nearly every top industry in the city and are often willing to help with internships, job strategies, and one-on-one advice.
