“Stern’s MSBA program is not simply a very deep analytics and machine learning course, but rather takes a managerial and strategic view of data analytics. If one wanted to become a data scientist, there are other alternatives, but if one wanted to strategically manage business and business technology, the broad sweep that MSBA provides is the critical success factor.”

Biography

Amal Shehata joined New York University Stern School of Business as a Clinical Assistant Professor of Accounting in September 2015, after having been an adjunct professor at the School since 2008. She teaches courses in financial accounting and auditing.

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. Now she can add a Master of Science in Business Analytics degree from NYU Stern to her accomplishments as well.
 
After four and half years at Goldman as a business analyst/program manager, Cindy was offered her current post just after announcing at work that she was entering Stern’s program. “One could say I benefited from the program before I completed it,” she jests.
