The Economics & Finance MSc from King's Business School provides rigorous coverage of both the theory and practice of economics and finance, driven by research, theory development, practical application and critical analysis. The programme provides you with rigorous coverage of both the theory and practice of economics and finance and a high quality, research-based education of practical relevance in economics and finance that is driven by a combination of research, theory development, critical analysis, and practical application. Gain the knowledge to build a strong career in the business and finance sectors, as you learn about micro and macroeconomics, financial markets & services and the relationship between finance and econometrics. But you won't just learn the key quantitative skills you need for success. Our courses are underpinned by the underlying philosophies and methodologies of a social science approach to economics and finance. Numbers are important, but understanding how those numbers affect the wider world of finance and business is essential in the modern world.
