BSc (Hons) Economics and Finance University of Lincoln

Program Description

Making the right decisions at the right time in finance requires foresight and understanding of the factors at work, and these skills are integral to a course that aims to develop economists with a specialism. The Economics and Finance programmes at Lincoln aim to equip students with the skills to analyse financial and economic events and their impact on markets. It enables students to develop an understanding of advanced financial techniques, including pricing and portfolio management. Teaching is designed to equip students with a theoretical and practical understanding of the economy and the crucial role played by the financial sector across the world. Students are encouraged to develop the advanced analytical skills that are valued in the business and financial industries for decision-making, portfolio planning, risk management, and working within financial markets. The programme is available as either a three-year BSc degree or a four-year Master's programme. Those who enrol on the MEcon, and meet the progression requirements at the end of their third year, can go on to undertake a substantive research project in an area of particular interest.
