Overview
The Finance programme of University of Liechtenstein is unique thanks to its international approach, its CFA-oriented curriculum and its personal study environment, where students are treated as individuals. Around forty students from all over the world are admitted every year.
The Master's in Finance programme is one of the few MSc in Finance worldwide that has an affiliation with all three major professional financial associations at the same time: CFA, GARP and CAIA.
To become a university partner with these professional associations, we had to demonstrate conformance between our curriculum and their body of knowledge.
Students studying on our Master's degree programme in Finance can therefore expect to be well prepared for all three professional finance exams.
Career perspectives
Graduates have excellent career prospects and are qualified for a wide range of leadership and expert positions in the financial services industry or in the financial departments of internationally operating businesses. Liechtenstein’s unique strategic position also helps our Master’s students to obtain easier access to the Swiss and European financial labour market.
