"Prior to enrolling at CEU, I had a little more than two years of work experience in the insurance industry, and discrepancies were becoming mere red Excel cells to be zeroed out. I have been wanting to broaden my experience in the financial services sector. Less than halfway through the MS in Finance, the courses are already exposing me to different facets of the field, connecting theory and practice, and on a more personal level, undoing my fear of coding. It is a great privilege to learn from highly talented professors and to be in a nurturing environment.

"I have an undergraduate in mathematics and have been working in actuarial liability modeling. I am pursuing the MS in Finance at CEU because I want to see the inner workings on and business decisions for both sides of the balance sheet. Even with just the Fall term done, I can already say that I have learned a lot about the fundamentals and how they apply to the real world. My background thus far has either been purely theoretical or purely practical, but the classes at CEU make sure to incorporate both.

"I earned a BSc in Economics with Finance from the University of Westminster. I was eager to learn more and advance my knowledge of finance and data analytics to fulfill the needs of today’s modern scientific as well as professional challenges. I opted to study in the MS in Finance at CEU because it matched my interests and offered an outstanding American education experience in Budapest. Courses at CEU are taught by industry experts at the professional level with concept applications in the market.

"During my bachelor studies in International business I acquired general knowledge about business and economics. I wanted to dig deeper in these areas and complement my knowledge with practical skills in finance, programming and other areas. At CEU I have found a great range of opportunities to both explore state of the art concepts and acquire useful skills. Also, thanks to the values of the university, CEU colleagues and alumni are supportive and accessible from day one.

"I am certainly aware that our background should not be a hindrance to scaling the heights of prestigious higher learning. My journey to CEU has been a remarkable one. Having gained substantial professional experience in audit and credit management, I felt I needed to complement my expertise with emerging financial technology and data analytics. And CEU has helped me do just that.
