Program overview

A three year honours degree combining economics with finance, covering microeconomics and macroeconomics, econometrics, financial markets, corporate finance and quantitative method.

This is the focused pairing, distinct from the broader economics, finance and international business degree London Met also offers.

Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Economics and Finance is taught at the University of London Met, a public university in England with full degree awarding powers. Because the economics and finance degree is a degree, it supports an application under the UK Graduate Route, which gives two years of unsponsored work in Britain after you finish. No job offer or sponsor is needed for the economics and finance degree, but you must be inside the UK on a valid student visa when you apply. Your student visa covers the length of the economics and finance degree plus a short period afterwards. UK rules from January 2024 bar a dependant partner or child on taught courses, so the economics and finance degree does not support a family move.

Entry to Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Economics and Finance is a recognised Grade 12 or equivalent school qualification at 60 percent or above. The English requirement is IELTS Academic 6.0 overall with no band below 5.5, and tuition for the economics and finance degree is recorded at GBP 19,500. London Met charges no application fee, and London Met charges no application fee, and no scholarship is recorded against the economics and finance degree . The economics and finance degree lists four entry windows across September and January, which is genuinely flexible. Apply Study Visa manages your the economics and finance degree application, the deposit, the offer, the CAS and the UK student visa as one process.

Admission requirements

Who can apply (guide for international students):

  • Education: Grade 12 or equivalent at the percentage stated for this course.
  • English (meet any one): IELTS Academic 6.0 overall with no band below 5.5; TOEFL iBT 72 with reading 18, writing 17, speaking 20 and listening 17; PTE Academic 59 in every component; or the Duolingo English Test at 105, which London Met does accept.
  • Application and deposit: London Met charges NO application fee, so applying costs you nothing. Confirm the tuition deposit and its refundability in writing before any money is transferred.
  • Scholarship: London Met applies an India Bright Futures Scholarship worth GBP 5,000 to eligible Indian students automatically, with no separate application form. You apply for the course as normal and the award appears on your offer if you qualify. Confirm the figure on that offer rather than assuming it, and check the eligibility conditions for your intake before budgeting around it.
  • Additional requirement: London living costs and the UKVI maintenance requirement are both higher than for study elsewhere in Britain. Budget for the London figure rather than the national one.
  • Work rights: the economics and finance degree is a degree, so it supports a UK Graduate Route application giving two years of unsponsored work after you finish. No dependant may accompany you on a taught course.
  • Student visa: Apply Study Visa prepares the CAS request, the financial evidence and the UK student visa submission with you.

Career opportunities

Typical destinations for graduates:

  • Economic Analyst: consultancies and institutions
  • Financial Analyst: corporate finance
  • Investment Analyst: asset management
  • Risk Analyst: financial institutions
  • Policy Analyst: government and think tanks
  • Consultant: economic advisory

Reality check: econometrics is the module that makes economics graduates employable in finance, so treat the quantitative content as central rather than peripheral.
