Why MiQE/F?

With its challenging curriculum, the Master's degree programme in Quantitative Economics and Finance offers high-quality education in economics, econometrics and quantitative methods with a strong focus on finance.

The programme combines in-depth knowledge in the areas of economics and finance with state-of-the-art quantitative methods, which makes it unique in Switzerland. The MiQE/F trains students to analyse and solve challenging problems in economic policy, finance and the world of business. Small class sizes ensure inspiring discussions and close contact to the research-oriented faculty. The MiQE/F is an excellent basis for moving on to responsible positions in the private sector or policy institutions as well as for highly selective Ph.D. programmes worldwide.

Learning Objectives Master in Quantitative Economics and Finance

  • You develop a deep understanding of economics and finance theories.
  • You gain strong methodological competences with distinctive skills in econometrics, quantitative methods and machine learning.
  • MiQE/F prepares you for economics in the “digital age”. You will be able to handle, analyse and interpret large data sets with different tools and programmes.
  • You know how to apply your diverse skill-set to analyse data and solve complex and challenging real-world problems.
  • In addition, your management and communication skills are trained.

Why choosing MiQE/F at the University of St.Gallen?

Studying internationally

As a MiQE/F student, you experience an international environment with English as the programme language. During your studies, you meet and work with students and lecturers with diverse cultural backgrounds from all over the world. The MiQE/F programme supports exchange semesters, as you can complete all compulsory courses in the first two semesters of your Master studies. The University of St.Gallen features exchange agreements with more than 200 partner universities across the world. Moreover, the freemover programme offers the opportunity of an exchange semester with several other universities across the world. Student Mobility 

As a MiQE/F student, you have the opportunity to apply for attractive double degree programmes with renowned schools:

  • Stockholm School of Economics SSE
  • ESADE Barcelona
  • HEC Paris
  • RSM Rotterdam
  • Bocconi University Milan

As a double degree student, you spend one year at the University of St.Gallen and the second year at one of our partner institutions. Upon completion of two academic years, you will be awarded two master’s degrees.

Alternatively, MiQE/F students may apply for the CEMS one-year masters in International Management – a prestigious joint degree programme offered by the Community of European Management Schools.

Excellent career prospects

As a MiQE/F graduate you bridge the gap between mathematicians and economists. Policy and financial institutions as well as the private sector are increasingly confronted with complex problems requiring confident application of methods as well as a deep understanding of economic processes and the finance sector. MiQE/F graduates are prepared for responsible positions in the areas of banking and finance, consulting and insurance. What's next?

You are rather looking for opportunities to pursue an academic career? MiQE/F not only prepares you ideally for the Ph.D. programme in Economics and Finance (PEF) at the University of St.Gallen, but also offers access to highly selective Ph.D. programmes worldwide.

Individual study profile

The MiQE/F offers you a flexible programme to develop your own study profile and skills set. You can select from a wide range of core electives and electives.

In-depth method training and digitalisation

Analysing data has become a key component of developed economies. Data analysis helps economic players e.g. when optimizing work processes, developing pricing schemes and in price discrimination. Similarly, data analysis is crucial to evaluate the performance of economies and economic policies. Digitisation has led to a multitude of newly available data and data formats for which new methods of data analysis have been developed. In the working environment, it is therefore advantageous to be able to deal with a variety of data formats and to analyse data with the best possible methods. To meet these requirements, the MiQE/F offers various courses in this field.

Direct contact to renowned faculty

The small group sizes in the courses not only facilitate discussions with your fellow students, but also allow a direct contact with the lecturers. Our lecturers teach practice- and policy-oriented, are involved in economic policy and provide insights in their research. They enjoy a high academic reputation. The University of St.Gallen is ranked 9th for economic research in the German-speaking area Handelsblatt Ranking in 2017.

Integrative education

In addition to your economic expertise, you will acquire social, historical and political awareness in contextual studies. Among others, you can attend courses for scientific work or programming, as well as language courses. Our students are to become personalities who can take on social responsibility, think in an integrative way and act sustainably.
