The Department of Finance at National Sun Yat-sen University (NSYSU) was founded in 1986 and was the first such department in Taiwan. The full-time master's program began in 1991, and the Ph.D. program started in 1995, followed by the part-time master's program in 1999.
Our master's program was ranked 49th in the 2015 UK Financial Times Global Masters in Management Ranking. Moreover, the Department of Finance at NSYSU made its first appearance in the Asian Global Masters in Management Ranking in 2008.
The Department of Finance at NSYSU obtained accreditation from the CFA Institute in May 2013, the first recognized CFA program partner school in southern Taiwan. Only 148 schools worldwide have received CFA Institute accreditation since 2006, and the department has nominated five students to apply for CFA program scholarships each year. Our department is committed to continuous improvements in its curriculum, faculty teaching quality, and student performance.
The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) is the most widely accepted and highly regarded accreditation agency for degree programs in management. The College of Management, NSYSU, offers AACSB Accredited business programs and again earned AACSB Accreditation in 2015 for its undergraduate and graduate programs. AACSB accreditation signifies that our department must maintain international standards of excellence specifically designed for undergraduate and graduate finance programs.
