MA/MS in Finance and Financial Management Services

The Master of Liberal Arts in Finance is offered by the Division of Continuing Education at Harvard. It is designed to give students a grounding in the core principles of finance. Topics covered include financial planning, the implementation of financial decisions, how financial performance is measured, and investment. The program is aimed at learners who want a working understanding of how money is managed and evaluated. Its approach focuses on the concepts that support sound financial judgment, whether the student is planning personal finances or thinking about institutional decisions. Coursework is built to connect these principles to practical questions. Applicants should check the division's program pages for admission criteria, course schedules, tuition and deadlines, since those details are not included on this overview.
