The curriculum of the analytically, and quantitatively focused undergraduate program in Economics and Finance is designed to provide the students with a broad and deep understanding of forces that influence markets and institutions in general, and financial markets and financial institutions in particular.

The curriculum balances rigorous Economic and Finance theory with an exhaustive quantitative focus that will enable the students to translate theory to practice. The program consists of a set of core courses, a wide variety of elective courses, and specifically identified analytical, quantitative, and computing courses from allied departments like Mathematics and Computer Science.

The students of Economics and Finance also undergo a mandatory research seminar course that will equip them with Level-1 research experience and provide a strong grounding on research-based career choices. The program will culminate in a semester-long internship or a research thesis.

The teaching-learning process for students of B.Sc. (Economics and Finance) uses a wide variety of methods, including case studies, lab-based financial modelling, and industry interaction, in addition to classroom lectures and tutorials.

This program will provide students with a platform to pursue, according to their own interests, a wide range of career paths including financial services, analytics, banks, consulting, policy institutes, regulatory bodies, think tanks, and higher education, amongst others.

Students from all backgrounds are encouraged to apply for the BSc (Research) in Economics and Finance. However, students must have taken Mathematics up to Class XII to be eligible for the selection process to this programme.
