Beautiful tropical beaches, buzzing nightlife, and a melting pot of culture – that sums up what people think of when Miami, Florida, is brought up. Miami has been an emerging business and tech hub for the past few years with no signs of slowing down.
Florida International University’s Chapman Graduate School of Business stands in the heart of it. Reported #4 Best Public University in the US by Wall Street Journal 2023, FIU offers unmatched international professional development opportunities for the enterprising and ambitious.
From a world #1 for Faculty Research Master of Science in International Real Estate program by the Journal of Real Estate to an International MBA ranked #4 by US News & World Report 2023, FIU Graduate School of Business understands what it means to provide a world-class education.
Students of the Master of Science in Finance program will find plenty of career opportunities in Miami, where the largest concentration of international banks in the US can be found right at the school’s doorstep. STEM-based programs like the MBA in Business Analytics, MBA in Cybersecurity Risk Management, and Master of Science in Information Systems are among the many that allow international students to extend their stay in the US for a total of three years, further enhancing any career development prospects.
It’s no surprise that more than 20% of the school’s 70,000 graduates own businesses. About 70% of graduates work in organisations, most being Fortune 500 companies and many work for international or multinational firms, representing a significant part of Florida’s economy.
Aside from the school’s proximity to Miami’s hottest spots, FIU Graduate School of Business is among the 5% of elite business schools worldwide accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business – adding another reason for students to pursue a graduate program here.

As part of an R1 top-tier research institution, the school produces leading-edge research that shapes business practice and influences public policy. The researchers behind them make up a big part of the more than 150 top scholars and business leaders from 40 nationalities who teach here. Most are widely known in their fields, with expertise spanning information technology strategy, e-business, international banking and trade, global marketing and corporate responsibility, and more.
“I had a class where the professor taught us how to operate a business through Rubix cubes and solve problems with statistical analysis,” says International MBA student Denise Feierabend from Germany. “It was such a different approach to teaching that I think it is one of the most memorable experiences in my university education.”
The school welcomes students from 123 countries, allowing you to build your network of personal and professional connections with future leaders and experts in the field. In a time when the internationalization of business is peaking, this presents a fantastic opportunity to engage with and expand your contact list.
“FIU being an international university and having the word ‘international’ in my program definitely solidified my decision to study here,” says Feierabend. “Being an international student, I don’t feel any different from anyone else here because the whole university and Miami are generally very diverse.”
Feierabend’s class of 50 had 14 nationalities represented. “People come from Honduras, the Netherlands, Egypt, Russia, Cuba, and more, which makes discussing topics very interesting because everyone has different points of view,” she says. “These interactions enrich the program further, both inside and outside classes.”
