Course summary
Introducing MA Economics with Finance
There are obvious synergies between economics and finance. In addition to covering the core of the economics programme, this programme will introduce the basic principles of finance and move onto more advanced topics such as investments and securities and corporate finance.
The programme provides an excellent background for students who want to pursue a career in finance.
How will I learn?
Courses are taught through a combination of lectures, seminars, tutorials, workshops and web-based learning.
The Economics Help Desk offers students help and support throughout their programme. The peer assisted learning scheme, EconPALS, aims to help first year students develop their learning and study strategies.
How will I be assessed?
You will be assessed by exams and coursework, including problems sets, essays, and project reports, and presentations. In Year 4 you will complete an honours dissertation.
Career opportunities
Our graduates are highly regarded by employers.
The skills you develop will equip you for careers in accountancy, business, management and consultancy, or for work in aid agencies, not-for-profit organisations or government departments.
Many graduates have entered the finance sector and some large financial firms actively recruit Edinburgh graduates.
