Experience Innovative Technologies in Financial Practice with Our FinTech Programme

Financial Technology (FinTech) is an emerging engineering discipline that focuses on employing technological innovations in finance. The purpose of our FinTech programme is to educate and equip students with the essential knowledge and capabilities they need to apply technological innovations to financial services, and to nurture leadership and entrepreneurship for the next generation of financial talent in support of Hong Kong’s endeavours to grow into an international FinTech hub. The programme is built on strong collaboration between the Faculty of Engineering and the faculties of Business Administration, Law and Social Science. It offers multi-disciplinary training to equip students with both a solid technological education in engineering innovations and a comprehensive understanding of the business and legal environment for FinTech. New course offerings bring state-of-the-art developments in the field to our undergraduate education programme for the first time. Closely collaborating with the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) and the Hong Kong Applied Science and Technology Research Institute (ASTRI), the programme also organises internships and overseas exchanges to encourage students to apply theory to real-world cases. In addition, the programme offers a double-major programme in FinTech-IBBA with the Faculty of Business, a dual-degree programme in Finance and FinTech with Shanghai Jiao Tong University, as well as a dual-degree programme in Financial Math and FinTech with Peking University.
