Become a quantitative finance specialist
That is because our students graduate not only with the quantitative skills that you’d expect from maths or econometrics graduates, but also with hands-on implementation/coding skills and practical knowledge of financial markets. Furthermore, VU Amsterdam’s proximity to the heart of the Netherlands’ financial centre, the Zuidas, means it has excellent links with the financial services industry.
MSc Finance graduates emerge as highly sought-after professionals, prepared to navigate the complexities of modern finance and contribute to solving pressing global challenges
Entering the job market
