Master of Science in Financial Analytics (STEM)

at EDUCO - Stevens Institute of Technology USA

Unlike financial engineers, who use mathematical modeling and computer science skills to create algorithms and tools, financial analysts combine their programming skills with talents in data analysis and statistics to design innovative solutions to finance problems. They also use excellent business and communication skills to assess client needs and make recommendations to executive teams.

The Stevens master’s in Financial Analytics teaches professionals to apply their physics, statistics or engineering skills to the lucrative finance industry. You’ll learn from faculty whose insights are changing how the industry is thinking about concepts like machine learning, data modeling and optimization in finance. You’ll take courses in one-of-a-kind financial labs, home to the data analysis and visualization tools used on Wall Street. Most importantly, our location on the Hudson River ensures you’ll have regular interaction with industry recruiters in New York City, just 10 minutes away by train or ferry.

In today's complex, competitive world of data and technology, the global healthcare, cybersecurity, environment, natural and man-made disaster-related challenges that we face have created demand for a new type of professional — one who deals in "big data." Employers across industries are increasingly seeking individuals with data visualization and data analytics capacities who can model uncertainty in systems, perform decision analysis and develop quantitative approaches to engineering enterprise management strategies.

In the challenging and fast-paced 21st century environment, the critical role of an engineering manager calls for a professional who is skilled in the creation, application and management of technology to solve complex issues, invent new processes and products, build new enterprises and gain actionable insights from data. Individuals who seek to develop these skills come to the School of Systems & Enterprises' (SSE's) Master of Engineering in engineering management program.

The program provides students with a strong understanding of the technology involved in engineering projects and the management process through which these technologies are applied. Through the Master of Engineering in engineering management, the SSE seeks to create engineers who can interface with technical and business aspects to add the most value to their respective enterprises.

The bioengineering master’s program is tailored for students who have a strong science background. Stevens also offers this program to current medical professionals who have a vested interest in biomaterials and tissue engineering research.

The bioengineering master’s program prepares students to enter the biotechnology, pharmaceutical, medical device or life science industries. It will also prepare them for a Ph.D. in biology, bioengineering or related fields as well as other professional health careers.

This interdisciplinary program focuses on tissue engineering, biomaterials and regenerative medicine methods to improve healthcare. The bioengineering master’s program builds on a foundation of molecular biology and chemistry while also adding elements of bioengineering design. Graduates of this program will be positioned to succeed with careers in pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device companies in addition to biomedical research and regulatory institutions.

A master's in software engineering centers on building reliable, responsive, safe and secure software systems that propel industry and society forward in an increasingly interconnected world. In our software engineering program, you'll learn about the life cycle process and how to build sustainable products. You'll also acquire the skill sets necessary to design, build, test, and maintain software systems, and to manage software projects with optimal efficiency.

The School of Systems & Enterprises' (SSE's) software engineering students come from varied backgrounds — computer science, general science, mathematics, engineering, business and liberal arts — to develop the intellectual toolkit necessary to become architects and project leaders who can build the software-intensive systems of the future. The master's in software engineering program equips students with advanced knowledge in software architecture, project management, technical planning, risk management and software assurance – areas that are essential in implementing and overseeing software-intensive projects of high technical complexity.

Media and broadcast engineering lies at the intersection of audio/video processing, networking, software design and complex system integration. The media and broadcast engineering master's program provides students with a comprehensive foundation in all aspects of media production, delivery and management, and prepares them for relevant careers as media and broadcast engineers, network managers and developers, streaming media developers and project managers for broadcast networks.

The program provides similar education and opportunities to professionals in the field wishing to enhance their skillsets. It also covers media engineering in emerging media publishing channels such as through the Internet and mobile applications.

The computer science master’s program at Stevens is designed to meet growing demand for skilled professionals in the development and application of information technology. The program provides a solid foundation in theoretical instruction along with practical applications necessary for industry success. Unique, advanced courses in enterprise and cloud computing as well as secure systems give our students a competitive advantage.

Students will learn to professionally and effectively communicate computer science concepts, designs and solutions throughout this program, as well as obtain specialization in key application domain areas of computer science. Key skills you will learn include how to implement the solution of a computing problem using the appropriate program languages.

In the Stevens civil engineering master's program, you'll gain solid theoretical foundations in your chosen area of concentration and learn the applications of engineering principles through practical real-world projects. As a student, you’ll have a chance to work with leading experts on cutting-edge civil engineering research while building a strong network in one of the largest urban areas in the world.
