Financial Technology (FinTech)

Bachelor Technology and Innovation


Financial Technology (FinTech) combines finance, data, and software to build safer, faster, and more inclusive financial services. At UII, you will learn by doing through project studios with industry mentors, from building payment prototypes to analysing transaction risk. The curriculum blends core finance with programming (Python/SQL), data analytics, UX for financial products, and compliance. By graduation, you will have a portfolio of projects and the skills to work in banks, fintech firms, and startups or continue with advanced study.


After graduation, students will be qualified to work at banks, finance companies, insurance firms, investment funds, venture capital funds, securities companies, and multinational corporations developing and delivering technology-driven solutions, as well as at public or private science-and-technology transfer organizations and FinTech startups.

Admission and Enrollment

Combined bachelor program

Looking for an extra challenge? Or can't you choose between the bachelor's programs Applied Mathematics, Applied Physics and Computer Science and Engineering? Then you can choose to follow a combined program at the TU/e. The following combination is possible:

- Double bachelor program Applied Physics and Applied Mathematics or

- Double bachelor program Computer Science and Engineering and Apllied Mathematics

In a combined program, the most important subjects of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science and Engineering, or Applied Mathematics and Applied Physics, are retained. There is a considerable overlap between the programs. You can therefore obtain 2 diplomas with extra credits (about 25% heavier program).


ATTENTION
If you opt for a combined bachelor you have to apply for both studies in Studielink!

Study association GEWIS

The study association represent the interests of the students at the department of Mathematics & Computer Science. It tries to let the students view their field of study from a different angle. It achieves this by means of excursions, lectures and symposia and by organizing a study trip. On the other hand, the association also organises sports tournaments, parties, a weekly drink, weekends and other forms of leisure activities to stimulate the relation between the members themselves.
