CFA University Affiliation Program
Department of Financial Studies is one of the academic institutions which was recently welcomed into CFA University Affiliation Program . Academic institutions that embed a significant portion of the CFA Program Candidate Body of Knowledge (CBOK) including the Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct—into their curriculum are eligible to participate in the University Affiliation Program.
An Affiliated University signals to their students and to employers that their curriculum is closely tied to the practice of investment management and is helpful to students preparing for the CFA® Program exams. The affiliation is a signal to Industry as well as potential students that DFS curriculum is closely linked with the professional practice hence giving an edge those students who are sitting for CFA Exams.
As a result of this recognition, the MBA (Finance) students of DFS are entitled to scholarships for the CFA Program.
