Course content

Fintech is transforming the financial sector with developments in blockchain, AI and big data. A specialised degree in finance with fintech will allow you to gain knowledge in traditional finance while understanding how tech innovations are shaping it.

Modules that blend core finance principles with cutting-edge technology, and hands-on experience with industry-standard tools, help you to develop expertise in financial analysis, risk management and FinTech innovations.

This course is part of our Finance MSc programme. All students complete the same core finance modules, then from the end of the first semester you will be able to specialise in one of five areas.

The other specialisms offered are:

  • Finance and Data Analytics MSc
  • Finance and Banking MSc
  • Finance and Investment MSc
  • Finance and Risk Management MSc
  • Economics and Finance MSc.

The University of Brighton is accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) – an accreditation achieved by fewer than 6% of business schools globally.
