Accounting & Finance (MSc)

About

The financial crisis of 2008 has partially originated from poorly regulated, risky financial instruments. To avoid such crises in the future, financial and regulatory institutions need experts trained in both accounting and finance. Combining analytical skills in financial risk management with professional knowledge in internal and external accounting, the MSc Accounting and Finance features an integrated analytical approach to graduate education in these fields. Other than for the difficult task of regulating financial markets, knowledge taught in this programme is of great importance in several fields of business that rely on risk management and an understanding of how incentives determine managersâ€™ behaviour in both financial and non-financial firms. However, the scope of the programme reaches far beyond the limits of these two fields of business. Students who enrol in this programme may specialise in either Accounting or Finance through advanced field courses or alternatively choose a more balanced portfolio of courses in both fields. Other courses focus on institutional aspects pertaining to Corporate Governance and Auditing. Importantly, the programme includes theory and application of empirical methods as employed in the practice of Empirical Banking or in institutions aiming at international financial stability.
