Graduate Certificate in Corporate Finance

Be at the center of how a business operates

Designed for current finance professionals, our Graduate Certificate in Corporate Finance provides essential knowledge for those seeking to advance in the field. Your courses will focus on methods of implementing financial strategy by stressing the impact of ethical and legal considerations. You may also choose to examine the financial, managerial, accounting, and legal factors affecting corporate mergers or explore advanced financial risk management through your electives.

Build your financial skills and strategic understanding of how companies finance creation, growth, and the acquisition or disposal of business. In our program, you will have an opportunity to gain industry know-how and agility, as well as the confidence to face uncertain and high-demanding environments with success.

Just-in-Time Learning. The Graduate Certificate in Corporate Finance is designed to give you training that you can use immediately. The skills you learn in an evening class will be useful to you the next morning at work. At D’Amore-McKim School of Business, you won’t find theoretical training for a theoretical future—you’ll have the opportunity to gain practical, real-world knowledge rooted in the realities of working life.

Study on your own terms. The Graduate Certificate in Corporate Finance has been designed with working professionals in mind. Courses are offered on weeknights and Saturdays on our Boston campus and online. You can choose to enroll in a class just one night a week or accelerate the program by taking a heavier course load each semester.

Start your Graduate Certificate in Corporate Finance at a time that works for you. You can enter the program in January, May, or September.

Build toward something more. In the Graduate Certificate in Corporate Finance, you will have the opportunity to develop foundational financial knowledge through the study of global markets.

When you are ready to pursue a full graduate degree at Northeastern University—now or in the future—the credits you earn during the certificate program may be applied to eligible master’s programs, including our Part-Time MBA and Online MBA. This is a valuable opportunity to turn your career-enhancing graduate certificate into a more advanced professional credential.
