Applications are now open | MAS start date: September 7th, 2026
We are pleased to announce the opening of applications for the 2026–2027 edition of the One-Year Master of Advanced Studies (MAS) in Sustainable Finance, Impact Investing and Development (60 ECTS).
The one-year MAS in Sustainable Finance, Impact Investing and Development (60 ECTS, 2 semesters, full time, in person at Maison de la paix, Geneva, Switzerland) is a selective postgraduate programme focused on preparing students for employment in the financial sector, international organisations, NGOs and think tanks.
The programme combines training in the advanced empirical and analytical tools that are required for employment in the field of ESG and impact investing.
Courses are taught in English by the faculty of the International Economics Department and of the Interdisciplinary Programme. Courses provide students with the necessary analytical skills and the transdisciplinary background they will need in order to apply the tools of sustainable finance to the world of socially responsible investments aimed at financing the SDG goals.
Our practitioners course on sustainable finance offers a unique exposure to sustainable finance firms from the financial sector, accounting, consultancy as well as multinational organisations.
This applied approach – teamed with our close connection to one of the globally dominant sustainable investment hub that benefits from the presence of many international organisations and NGOs based in Geneva, and to our close links to international financial organisations such as the World Bank and the IFC – opens up many career opportunities in the field of ESG and impact investing.
Join us for this transformative journey!
Applications close on 15 February 2026
