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. Economics studies the behaviour of individuals, businesses, and governments in the face of various constraints. NTU's MSc Economics, Banking and Finance degree is designed to combine the analytical rigour of an Economics course with an in-depth coverage of major areas of Banking and Finance. Students will systematically analyze and understand decision-making in the context of economies and financial systems in a globalized world. Students will learn to critically evaluate the behaviour of key players in economies and financial systems and to assess the consequences for individuals, society or the sustainability of economic and financial development. The course is distinctive for applying a strong policy focus, particularly emphasizing aspects of financial development, stability and crises as well as sustainability.
