Courses in Economic Sciences

The Economic Sciences area gathers master's programmes and advanced training courses for those who want to work in the world of economics, finance and consulting. It is the reference field for graduates in economics, statistics, mathematics and law who want to specialise, and for professionals who intend to move into roles of greater responsibility in banks, insurance companies, audit firms and businesses.

The paths include accounting, insurance, auditing, banking, consulting, economics, finance and financial markets. Each programme combines theoretical lessons, case analysis, simulations and project work with financial institutions and consulting firms, in order to provide analytical and operational tools that can be used immediately in everyday work and to approach professional certifications with confidence.

Attending a master's in Economic Sciences lets you develop skills in quantitative analysis, investment appraisal, risk management, reading financial statements, market regulation and the use of digital tools and data analytics. Many programmes integrate topics such as sustainable finance, fintech, compliance and financial education, increasingly central in financial services and businesses.

Career opportunities are very broad: financial analyst, risk manager, consultant, auditor, internal auditor, relationship manager, portfolio manager, trader, actuary, compliance officer, economist and controller. Opportunities exist in banks, insurance companies, asset management companies, audit and consulting firms, industrial and service companies, public institutions and international organisations.
