MSc in Financial Economics

The proposed Postgraduate degree in Financial Economics is a two-year program taught in English for students with a complete secondary education. The program aims to give students a thorough grounding in both theoretical and applied economics and finance. We put an emphasis on developing abstract analytical reasoning, which allows the graduates to solve complex economic problems in various settings. The curriculum is based on the financial theory and empirical methods employed by professionals practicing corporate finance, financial security valuation, financial modeling, portfolio management, financial services management, financial risk management, and corporate governance. The courses offered by the degree programme are taught both by affluent academics of the department and by external professionals from the central bank, commercial banks, Securities and exchange Commission (SEC) and business analysts. Upon completion of the program graduates are more than well prepared for further studies at any other recognized university. Furthermore, the graduates typically assume challenging positions in banking, consulting, investment funds, Stock brokerage firms and in public administration.
