“Dopo aver conseguito la laurea magistrale, sentivo la necessità di approfondire alcune competenze specifiche che mi consentissero di farmi trovare il più pronto possibile al momento dell’inserimento professionale. Grazie al Master in Finanza dell’IPE Business School ho maturato una solida preparazione finanziaria che mi ha portato con successo in una della banche d’affari più prestigiose al mondo.”
Stefano Morelli, MFA 2006
Vice President Equity Derivatives – Bank of America
“Il Master mi ha arricchito dal punto di vista del sapere e del saper fare; i numerosi lavori di gruppo e il Project Work in azienda sono stati per me fondamentali, un primo banco di prova lavorativo, utili ad acquisire consapevolezza e sicurezza in me stessa. Grazie all’IPE Business School ho avuto numerose opportunità lavorative che credevo irraggiungibili e uniche: prima in consulenza strategica (The Boston Consulting Group) e poi nel settore assicurativo.”

Giulia Cardo, MFA 2019
