The Bendheim Center for Finance was established in 1998 to encourage interdisciplinary research in finance, primarily from a quantitative or mathematical perspective. The research activities of the center are directed toward the study of financial markets and asset prices, the financial structure of firms, commercial banks and other financial intermediaries, and the linkages between financial economics and other fields, such as engineering, operations research, mathematics, computer science, psychology and public policy.

Given the dynamic market conditions of the past few years, this is one of the most exciting times for research and study of finance.

The Center offers an Undergraduate Certificate in Finance (introduced in the Fall of 1999), a Master in Finance (introduced in the Fall of 2001), and the Center hosts approximately 20 Ph.D. students who work with its faculty.

The center also supports research activities of the faculty and students, organizes seminars and events, and maintains a large financial database.

The Advisory Council for the Bendheim Center is comprised of a group of distinguished leaders in the financial industry.

The Bendheim Center for Finance is located in the former Dial Lodge.
