MSc International Business Finance and Economics

About

MSc International Business Finance and Economics is part of our Applied Training Programme, which is designed to provide key skills in economics. It’s ideal if you’re a graduate without an economics background, wishing to develop the analytical skills of an economist. It’s also suitable if you’re an economics graduate wishing to develop specialist expertise in this area without committing to full research training. 

The compulsory component of your degree consists of taught modules in Economic Concepts, Finance, Financial Econometrics, International Finance, and Multinational Firms. In addition to these, you’ll choose an option from a range of modules, including Financial Mathematics and Environmental Economics. 

You’ll write a dissertation towards the end of your 12 months with us from within the area of international business finance and economics, which will be supervised by a member of the School of Economics. 

We offer specialised structural support to help you negotiate your masters course. This includes compulsory, intensive pre-sessional training before the start of teaching on your course modules. This training incorporates the techniques of calculus and matrix algebra and an introduction to the specialist econometric software that you'll use in your MSc programme.
