Academic DivisionsThe Division of Economics offers two economics Masters courses and a Postgraduate Foundation Certificate in Economics.
Our European MSc in Economics provides training in advanced economics and its applications. Students will study at the University of Bradford and at one of our European partner universities.
Combining taught modules in this manner you will gain important additional skills of studying and living in another European member state as well as access to a wide range of modules. This will give you a broader experience of economics and will provide an excellent foundation for a career in a European or international company or organisation.
Our MSc in Financial Economics equips students with the tools of economic reasoning, research and statistical analysis to investigate problems in financial economics. This postgraduate degree is designed to enhance the knowledge of graduates who have interests and career aspirations in financial institutions or international financial organisations.
The course is structured to provide an understanding of the application of economic analysis to financial markets and institutions, the role of financial institutions and markets in the domestic and international economy, the different approaches to economic decision making in finance and the economic governance structures and institutions that support the financial system.
We have also a
Postgraduate Foundation Certificate
, which is specifically designed from selected modules in the Division for students who already possess a degree in other subjects (e.g. sciences, engineering, management) at a level acceptable for entry to the Master’s programme, but who need further preparation in quantitative, economic, business and financial analysis.
The curriculum has been devised to allow you to extend and complement the skills and knowledge you have gained during your previous studies. At the beginning of the year, you will be given help to choose the most appropriate optional modules, taking into account how your previous education and/or experience meet the demands of the modules, your career aspirations and personal preference.
