Financial analysis has evolved from an art to a science in the past three decades. This development has placed strict demands on practitioners to master the complex analytical and quantitative methods increasingly used in financial markets. The University of San Francisco offers a Master of Science degree in Financial Analysis (MSFA) that provides rigorous training in quantitative finance and economics.

The Professional MSFA is designed to serve the needs of today's busy students. Our executive-style program provides a sequential approach to the tools and knowledge necessary for the Chartered Financial Analyst® (CFA® designation by the CFA Institute). Classes meet on Saturdays so that working professionals — who have career commitments and goals in the financial and investment fields — may complete their graduate program in 22 months.

The Accelerated MSFA is designed for applicants who do not have two or more years of professional experience. MSFA Accelerated courses meet during the week over three semesters covering 12 months. The curriculum is identical to the MSFA Professional Program, and many of the same instructors teach the same courses in both program formats.

CFA® and Chartered Financial Analyst® are trademarks owned by CFA Institute.

USF also offers the M.S. in Risk Management and M.A. in Investor Relations graduate programs.
