UConn’s M.S. in FinTech is a 36-credit, STEM-designated program that blends financial theory with data analytics, blockchain, and machine learning. It allows international students to secure an extended OPT period. However, the School of Business has temporarily paused admissions for new students into this specific degree.
The 30-credit curriculum requires an applied industry capstone project, costs $39,750 total, and qualifies international students for F-1 visas and the 24-month STEM OPT extension.
The University of Connecticut’s Structural Biology and Biophysics (BS) is a rigorous, 4-year STEM program emphasizing the physical and chemical foundations of molecular biology.
It prepares undergraduates for global careers in commercial real estate, property management, and investment through project-based learning and industry internships.
International students pursuing this multidisciplinary degree engage in experiential learning, research practicums, and internships to prepare for careers in social services, healthcare, or education.
Students study primarily at the Avery Point campus, located on the Long Island Sound, granting direct access to coastal environments, research vessels, and marine laboratories.
