Bachelor in Economics and Finance

Tuition fees are 345 USD per year.

Economics and Finance is a field of study concerned with how individuals, businesses, and governments allocate resources, make financial decisions, and interact within markets. Typical subjects include microeconomics and macroeconomics, mathematics and statistics for economics, financial accounting, corporate finance, and econometrics, along with an introduction to how financial markets and institutions function. Students learn to analyze economic data, understand the behavior of markets and firms, and apply quantitative methods to questions ranging from household spending to national economic policy. This bachelor's degree in Economics and Finance is offered by Università degli Studi di Palermo in Palermo, Italy, and is taught in English. The program runs for three years, matching the standard structure for a first-cycle degree in the Italian higher education system, and provides a broad foundation in both economic theory and financial analysis. Graduates of economics and finance programs go on to work in banking, financial services, corporate finance, consulting, and public sector economic roles, or pursue further study at the master's level in economics, finance, or business administration. Common entry-level roles include financial analyst, junior economist, or associate positions within banks, investment firms, and corporate finance departments. Because the discipline blends theoretical economic reasoning with practical financial analysis, coursework generally combines classroom instruction in economic theory with applied training in financial modeling and data analysis, giving graduates a skill set relevant to both the public and private sectors.
