The digitalisation of the economy is one of the most contemporary and important challenges of our time.

Digital technologies have transformed businesses and societies at large and will continue to do so in the future, with significant impacts also all aspects of the financial sector.

The labour market requires new professional figures able to master both the core knowledge of economics and finance and the skills to understand and manage all the eco-fin aspects of new technologies and digital transformation.

Outcomes

This Bachelor’s Degree provides a set of skills who are highly expendable in the labour market and can also be considered a perfect starting point of an academic path in digital economics and finance

Junior Financial Analyst

Business consultant

Risk Manager

FinTech Startupper

Course Program Overview

The BSc in Digital Economics & Finance at H-FARM College is designed to blend digital finance and its applications in computing, such as Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain and many more. Students will gain in-depth knowledge of how financial institutions work and operate in the international markets, while being offered practical labs and opportunities to test how technology can influence this multi-billion industry.

The teaching methodology focuses on group works, presentations and business cases that help students to apply the knowledge acquired to real life situations. The same approach will be applied during the final term, where through mentoring sessions, students will design and develop a digital financial solution (fin-tech), either as an entrepreneurial project (start-up) or as a corporate project that contributes to the open innovation processes of an existing company.
