Admission Requirements
Academic Requirements
Applicants for this program must have completed a Bachelors degree (or an equivalent thereof) in mathematics or in another quantitative and mathematically-orientated discipline from a recognized university. A degree in economics, for example, can be sufficient provided that you have successfully taken a significant number of courses in mathematics and statistics. Applicants with a degree in physics or engineering are usually eligible.
Note that courses in financial mathematics and mathematics, which are an integral part of the MSc Finance, are on the level of mathematics programs. Applicants should therefore have a genuine interest in mathematics. If you are in doubt whether you meet the requirements you can send us an email with only your transcript of records for a preliminary check. Please try not to send attachments larger than 2 MB.
Furthermore, an above-average performance in the completed degree and good knowledge of the English language is required. For the latter, you can use a TOEFL (score of at least 570 for the paper-based test, 230 for the computer-based test, or 88 for the internet-based test) or an IELTS (score of 6.5 or better). A test is not needed by applicants whose mother tongue is English or who have completed a Bachelor taught in English.
You do not need prior knowledge in finance. The compulsory courses of the first semester are structured such that they can serve us an introduction to finance. Successful applicants will display the willingness to work in a challenging, multi-cultural environment, a strong mathematical ability and good communication skills.
English Proficiency: IELTS 6.5 or equivalent.
