Our Program  Remote Program
We will be accepting applications for the academic year 2006-2007 for taking the courses remotely. This remote program is in collaboration with UBS Investment Bank
The remote class room is generously provided by UBS in Stamford, Connecticut. The remote class room is connected to the class room at the University of Chicago through a video conferencing link which allows for two way communication. Thus the students in the remote class room can view and communicate with the lecturer in Chicago and reversely the lecturer and the students in Chicago can see and communicate with the students in Stamford. We have previously taught the program this way to UBS employees and have graduated one class from the remote program. Due to this success we have, together with UBS decided to open up the program to outside students.
The content of the remote course, exams and homeworks are identical to the program in Chicago. Some homework assignments are group projects and we actually encourage teams made up of both remote and local students. There are on-site TA's to help the remote students. The tuition is the same for both the local and remote programs
Admissions criteria are also indentical but make sure you specify on your application whether you are applying for the remote or the local program
