It is hard to miss Claire’s return on investment from earning her Master’s in Risk Management from NYU Stern. Within months of graduating, she had landed a new job in a different sector of the financial world. “I obtained my current position as Risk Manager at Harbour Fiduciary Services through another MSRM alumnus, and it probably would not have happened had I not completed the program,” Claire remarks. “I acquired the breadth of knowledge that enabled me to move from risk management in banking to performing risk management for a private equity real estate fund—in a role I love.”

For Dante, the NYU Stern MSRM program opened the door for him to start his own company.  Though entrepreneurial by nature, he had never risked striking out on his own. “NYU Stern taught me that it is not the jump that kills you, it’s the landing.  So, with my MSRM degree in hand as a parachute, I was finally ready,” he says. 

As Vice President of Business Intelligence and Analytics and Strategy for Goldman Sachs’s Operations Division, Cindy, a first-generation Dominican-American, is proud to be a role model for Latina women in tech.

“The MSBA program elevated my career to a whole new level.” That’s how Bennett, chair of the Information Governance practice group at legal giant Drinker Biddle & Reath, describes the return on his investment of time, effort, and money in NYU Stern’s Master of Science in Business Analytics program. In fact, the skills and credibility conferred by the degree—which he had literally just received—helped him create an entirely new job description for lawyers to aspire to: Chief Data Scientist.
