MSc ECONOMICS AND FINANCE This joint scheme provides students with a comprehensive grounding in many of the key concepts, modelling approaches and research techniques deployed in key areas of economics (such as microeconomics, macroeconomics and econometrics), which also have important applications within finance. This course will be of particular interest if you are planning a career in the finance industry or a role that calls for advanced analytical skills. The relationship between economics and finance is close, with finance sometimes viewed as a specialism within economics. The multifaceted aspects of this programme will therefore not only allow you to explore a range of topics within the finance and economic disciplines, but serve as preparation for a number of different career paths.
