- This top-ranked Finance Master’s program, which is offered both online and on-site, explores these questions through real-life business cases, many of which are led by people who work in the financial industry themselves. Students will look at the macro-level of financial economics: how financial markets help maximize economic growth. Students will also look at the inner workings of financial markets and corporations – and how financial regulation is the bridge between these two sides.
- With a Master’s in Finance, students can work at any of the large banks, asset managers, or consultancy firms, but also in institutions like the Central Bank or Ministry of Finance.
- The Finance Master’s program builds on a set of core courses that focus on the main areas of finance: asset pricing, corporate finance, and institutional finance. After that, students can specialize in one of the learning lines. Students will also pick up valuable financial methodologies, quantitative skills, research skills, and preparation for the job market.
- The program has been a top-ranked program according to the National Student Survey (NSE) for several years. With approximately 150 students it is small enough to maintain close contact with your classmates and the teachers, but large enough to ensure a good selection of electives. On top of that, one-third of the program’s professors also work in the financial industry themselves. All other courses offer at least two guest lectures from industry professionals and use cases from the industry.
