Program Overview

This brand-new programme – launching in January 2024 – blends two of Abertay’s areas of excellence: financial knowledge and experience, and world-leading computing research. MSc Fintech is designed to meet the current and future technological and data challenges faced by financial sectors.

The Fintech revolution is moving at such a pace that it's estimated in Scotland alone there will be a need for over 50,000 jobs to be created to fill the skills gap. The UK has the most developed finance sector in the world and sits at the epicentre of change.

This qualification will open you up to UK-wide and global opportunities. Its defining features are that it combines two streams which are required in modern finance. The first is financial knowledge and the second is the knowledge and understanding to drive sector change and new product development.

This programme will provide:

A thorough and contemporary knowledge of the financial technological challenges and opportunities of a Fintech organisation.
Key skills associated with employment in high performance organisations.
Lifelong learning and employability skills to enable preparation for a future career in the financial sector.
The ability to forward plan and manage risk.

MSc Fintech is aimed at non-specialists with either a financial or technological background, who wish to develop a career in this important, disruptive field. Financial intermediation accounts for a significant percentage of GDP. The Fintech model developed in the UK will likely be the blueprint adopted around the world.
