To thrive in today's financial sector, scientists need more than just programming skills or the ability to analyze markets through simplified mathematical models that overlook computational demands.
Our MSc Financial Technology (Computer Science) program equips you with deep knowledge of financial and economic market complexities, expertise in applying sophisticated computing techniques, and the capacity to create solutions that effectively bridge finance, economics, and computational approaches.

The MSc Financial Technology program offers three distinct specializations, allowing you to customize your degree to align with your career aspirations. Alongside our Computer Science pathway, you can choose between MSc Financial Technology (Finance) and MSc Financial Technology (Economics) to focus on your preferred discipline.
