　　金融专业全称Master of Science in Finance，即的MS in Finance，一年制的英国金融专业是很多国内学生和职场人士的最理想、高效的选择，金融学是对对金融各个细分领域的综合学习。

　　目前来说，国内金融学的课程主要覆盖的知识有微观经济学、货币银行学和国际金融学等几个方面的内容。可是严格意义上来讲这些知识都属于经济学的范畴，其中，货币银行属于货币经济学，即宏观经济学的范畴;国际金融属于国际经济学范畴。

　　而英国金融专业的课程设置可以明显看出，金融学是从经济学中独立出来的一门学科，主要研究的方向是金融市场(Financial Market)的活动，具体来将就是研究人们在金融市场上的行为。

　　英国的金融专业设置较为实用，大多是与财会、经济或投资相结合的。特别是，由于金融专业需要很强的数理背景，所以很多的金融专业是与数学紧密结合起来的。数学或统计学是英国金融专业中最重要的课程，并且将逐步演化成为一门对金融数据进行分析和预测的专门技术。学习金融专业不可避免的需要学习计量经济学(Econometrics)。计量经济学严格意义上来讲只是一个工具，就象计算机英语一样，在金融的各个领域都有重要的作用。简单点说，计量经济学在金融领域的应用就是把统计学方法应用到经济领域，试图从大量经济数据中找到统计规律。另外，英国的金融专业，有的属于学校的经济系，有的属于商科或管理系。前者需要学习微观经济学，而后二者则不用学习这个课程。
