  • University of Zurich: Faculty of Business, Economics and Informatics Programme: MA in Banking and Finance
    University of Zurich: Faculty of Business, Economics and Informatics Programme: MA in Banking and Finance Started: Winter Semester 2017 (expected graduation as of June 2019) Mária Partelová [email protected] University and Programme UZH is ranked as the 3rd university in Switzerland and 73rd worldwide according to QS University Ranking 2018. My two-years Master’s degree is in Banking and Finance and it is taught in English. Students can choose among many programmes and specializations, which can be found here: https://www.oec.uzh.ch/en/studies/master.html. The ones with a good reputation are Economics and Banking and Finance. Moreover, there is a joint Master’s degree of UZH and ETH in Quantitative Finance, which is surely best renowned. It is quite selective and challenging, but there are students from IES who were accepted and finished it. You can also officially start Banking and Finance, pass successfully all the courses required for Quant Finance and be reallocated after one year. The lectures are usually good, many of them are held by experienced professors which studied/worked before at the top universities such as MIT, Harvard Business School, Stanford, etc. You can choose lots of diverse courses at UZH and as a student of UZH, you can also take courses from ETH which you are interested in. With respect to my programme, compared to the Bachelor’s programme at IES, it is not more difficult in terms of content of courses, but it is quite demanding in terms of work that has to be done during the semester.
