MSc in Finance in Glasnevin Ireland | Dublin City University

The Master of Science in Finance is a 12-month graduate program delivering a premier European finance education, offering adaptable learning options and contemporary specializations aligned with industry needs. The program features dual enrollment periods in January and September.

For September entrants, the curriculum begins with foundational coursework in the initial semester, progressing to two specialized tracks in the subsequent semester: Capital Markets and Sustainable Innovative Finance, culminating in a dissertation.

The second semester (starting September) includes three advanced courses, with the dissertation project spanning the summer and final semester.

This program's curriculum combines hands-on training with research-driven core education. Students can personalize their experience through elective choices that match their professional ambitions. Designed for business/economics graduates and qualified non-specialists, it provides an exceptional route to obtaining a prestigious European postgraduate finance qualification.
