Are there any good value investing graduate programs besides Columbia's?
I am doing some research for "cheaper" value investing program besides Columbia University. I know Warren Buffet recommended the program of University of Missouri, University of Kansas and University of Florida. Are there any others?
I already run a business. I would have to take a sabatical to study value investing, which is one of my dreams (I have read almost all the books out there about the topic). However, it KILLS me to think that I have to study for a year "fundamentals"just to be able to see if I can enter the program. Also, the amount of money I have to pay, i dont know if it is worth it. After all, I dont want to work for a fund. I want to invest my business' money.
Wisconsin. Their applied Security Analysis program is legit and not very well known
If you have no desire to work for a fund why would you waste time and money by going back to school? Value investing is hardly rocket science and can be easily self taught (assuming you have the pre-disposition towards value investing which is something that instantly resonates with some). You should build your own curriculum and then learn by actually doing. You could then try to become a value investor's club member by submitting ideas.
What do you know about the University of Florida Value Investing Program? (Originally Posted: 07/25/2013)
I read in a Q & A that Warren Buffett recommended it. Its actually very tempting to go there. It is not that expensive an it last only 1 year. Here is the link to the program http://floridamba.ufl.edu/traditional/concentrations.asp#SecurityAnalys…
