MBA Programs:
Tepper offers two MBA programs: a full-time MBA and a part-time MBA. Both MBA programs consist of in-depth coursework and a broad curriculum. Students can focus on a particular industry or general management. Tepper offers more elective courses than the average business school- nearly twice as many. Teaching strategies include classroom simulations, lectures, case studies, and corporate-sponsored projects.
MSCF Program:
The Master of Science in Computational Finance (MSCF) program that is offered by Tepper is considered to be one of the top quantitative finance programs in the country. Lasting seventeen months, the MSCF program teaches the fundamentals of quantitative finance.

MSQE:
The Masters of Science in Quantitative Economics (MSQE) that is offered at Tepper is quite different from most of the degrees offered at other business schools.
