The Financial Times featured the HKUST-NYU Stern MS in Global Finance program. An alumnus Charmaine Cheuk, a real estate investment executive, talked about the valuable lessons she took after joining the course in 2007. Co-Academic Director at NYU Stern, Professor Menachem Brenner, pointed out that the variety of study locations and the opportunity to travel increases the program’s appeal. Professor Kasper Meisner Nielsen, Co-Academic Director at HKUST, said the constant flux in the financial world has meant the content needs to be regularly updated. For example, two courses have recently been added, one in fintech and the other in behavioral finance.
