Our MSc Financial Economics program equips you with essential analytical methods to explore significant economic challenges. You'll gain comprehensive training in mathematical and econometric approaches, along with microeconomic theory, while investigating the causes of financial market instability through historical and contemporary case studies of crises and policy interventions.
The curriculum develops your ability to formulate innovative academic concepts and validate them through econometric analysis. Econometric studies include linear and dynamic regression models, extensive hypothesis testing methods, and approaches for estimating equation systems. These methods are demonstrated using economic applications, including rational expectation models, plus consumption, production, and monetary demand functions.
