If students hold a bachelor’s degree or equivalent, but don’t meet the entry requirements for a master’s, a Pre-Master’s can help them gain a place on a postgraduate degree. The MSc Financial Technology at UWE Bristol has been designed to address the fintech skills shortage, by giving students the portfolio of technical and business skills essential to fast-tracking their FinTech career. The course is ideal for anyone with solid numeracy skills and an interest in the disruptive impact of new technologies. Students could work in an investment house, bank, insurance company, services consultancy or new venture, helping to develop, apply and manage financial technology innovation. Or take their skills into areas such as financial and data analysis, strategic business analysis, product development, app development, compliance or cyber security.
