The Master's Degree in Quantitative Methods for Economics and Finance promotes multidisciplinary seminars that allow students to compare knowledge and methodologies. The professionalizing seminars are part of the so-called integrative teaching, which includes in-depth meetings during which representatives of the business and university world participate.
Through this teaching methodology, students can get greater contact with the operational reality and verify the practical application of the theoretical knowledge.
The seminar activities contribute to the student's achievement of the CFU (see the section dedicated to the chosen activity).
