Interdisciplinary Major Programme in Global Economics and Finance 環球經濟與金融跨學科主修課程
GLEF
Short Description
Hong Kong has emerged as a major global financial hub. There is thus growing demand for finance professionals who possess knowledge of global economic and financial affairs and competence in carrying out financial analyses and operations.
The Interdisciplinary Major Programme in Global Economics and Finance (GLEF) strives to provide students with solid interdisciplinary training in economics and finance in a global context, and to cater for societal needs by preparing graduates who have strong analytical training and the requisite global mind-set to overcome the future challenges of the banking and finance industry. Graduates are expected to embrace the virtues of integrity, honesty, and a sense of responsibility.
This programme covers many topics that are not covered by conventional economics/ finance programmes. Some examples are:
- Stabilization mechanisms such as the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and European Central Bank (ECB)
- The emergence of China and its impact on the international economic and financial order
- Corporate social responsibility and sustainability of financial institutions in a global context
The GLEF programme places heavy emphasis on internship and research experience, from which students can further develop their potential and consolidate their knowledge.
Graduates can develop promising careers in multinational firms in the banking, finance and business consulting sectors or engage in financial research in public or private organisations.
