Overview

The Law and Finance MSc offered by UCL will provide you with a cutting-edge education at the intersection of law and finance delivered by the UCL Faculty of Laws, School of Management, and Department of Economics.

In today’s complex global economy, the expectations placed on legal and finance professionals - especially those in corporate and financial law - have changed dramatically. Employers are no longer looking for experts who can solely advise on legal issues or financial strategy in isolation. Instead, they seek professionals who operate fluently across legal, commercial, and financial domains.

Careers

Graduates of the MSc Law and Finance will stand out in a competitive market with this unique combination of theoretical knowledge and practical expertise which will enable them to thrive in roles across legal, financial, consulting and regulatory sectors.

You will gain:

Strategic, transdisciplinary thinking that bridges legal frameworks and financial analysis
Real-world experience through deal simulations or placements that reflect the demands of top-tier firms, combined with the ability to apply transdisciplinary thinking in practice
Strong familiarity and in-depth understanding of current practice in the international corporate and finance markets
A competitive edge in applying for roles focusing on international mergers and acquisitions, complex financing (including capital markets), financial services, private equity, regulatory bodies and rating agencies
Preparedness to advise on complex global transactions, investment decisions, and policy reforms including those within both the public and private equity market, loan and debt capital markets and corporate restructuring
Networks and professional credibility developed through close contact with our distinguished teaching team including market leading practitioners in the corporate and finance markets, as well as London’s legal and financial industries
