Competence Certificate

The assessment is carried out in form of a written thesis based on the course "Engineering FinTech Solutions".

Competence Goal

Students will learn to connect innovative financial research with modern information technology to build a prototype that solves some daunting tasks for professional end-users in the field of modern asset and risk management. Students with correspondingly good technological knowledge and a corresponding affinity for IT applications independently create their own prototypes in order to solve an extensive FinTech problem. Students learn to organize themselves in a team in a goal-oriented manner and to bring a comprehensive software project from the field of financial technology to success in partial steps. In addition, students deepen their financial and IT skills and are therefore able to successfully complete this interface, which is important for the booming FinTech market. Students of this module are particularly well prepared for management tasks in various innovation projects (not only in the area of FinTech).
