Course Overview

Birmingham is the second-largest city in the UK for finance companies. The Midlands has been identified as a major growth hub for FinTech and is already thriving, with over 100 firms currently operating in the sector. London, the global financial capital, is less than 2 hours away. Our strong relationships with key employers in the financial sector give you the chance to meet and network with leading global organizations. We are ranked number one for being targeted by the top UK employers (High Fliers Research 2021).

You will be part of a small cohort on this competitive specialist programme, allowing you to develop a closer relationship with experts, staff and fellow students

You can work on real-time industry projects which combine theory with intensive practice and industrial engagement. Example projects include: the setting up of crowdfunding platforms, application of blockchain services in reducing currency frauds, developing of algorithmic-trading applications and development of financial services applications

General Eligibility

A good Honours degree (2:1 or higher) or postgraduate diploma from a UK university or equivalent in a highly quantitative subject (such as Engineering, Computer Science, Mathematics, Economics, Finance or Science).

You must have obtained good grades in mathematical, quantitative or statistics related modules at undergraduate level, or GCE A-Level grade A or overseas equivalent in Mathematics. Good programming skills, using languages such as C++, SQL, Java, R or Python, and/or two years relevant work experience in the field of science and technology, financial services or treasury management, are not strict requirements but will add weight to your application.

Places on this programme are limited, so you may be asked to attend an interview as part of a competitive application process.
