Why did you decide to study the Master of Financial Risk Management program?

I wanted to make a transition from Accounting to Finance. Risk analysis and management is something that had always fascinated me. MFRM, thus was the perfect program for me.

What were your top reasons for choosing Rotman?

I chose Rotman, not because it is the no.1 business school in Canada, but because I really loved the MFRM program. But having said that, Rotman really is every bit worth its name. From my interactions with the admission team, TAs, and even while looking through the website, I noticed Rotman was leagues ahead of contemporary universities. I realized very early in the application process that this is where the best got to, to become even better and I was eager to be a part of it.

What are you looking forward to most in the program? 

I am most excited about the Risk Management project. Working with Industry professionals on interesting projects is what makes this program one of a kind and I am keen to experience it.

What do you expect to gain in your next 10 months at Rotman? 

I simply want to develop skills that sell. My goal is to be a valuable part of organizations by doing meaningful work and helping them achieve their goals. MFRM, I believe will help me develop the technical and soft skills needed to fare well in the area of Risk Management.
