This programme is designed to equip learners with a robust understanding of modern financial systems, economic theories, and the disruptive technologies that are reshaping the global financial ecosystem. It offers a multidisciplinary blend of finance, technology, and business strategy, making it highly relevant in today’s digital-first economy.
The global financial industry is undergoing a radical transformation driven by technologies like blockchain, artificial intelligence, machine learning, digital payments, robo-advisory, and regulatory technology (RegTech). From the rise of cryptocurrencies and decentralised finance (DeFi) to the widespread use of AI-powered trading platforms and neobanks, financial services are becoming increasingly automated, inclusive, and customer-centric.
According to global reports (World Bank, Deloitte, and IMF), FinTech adoption is rapidly expanding in both developed and emerging economies, with strong growth in regions such as North America, Europe, and Southeast Asia. This trend creates demand for professionals who can bridge the gap between traditional finance knowledge and emerging tech capabilities.
Graduates of this programme are prepared to engage with international FinTech startups, global financial institutions, and digital transformation projects, enabling them to contribute meaningfully in a rapidly changing global economy.
India is one of the fastest-growing FinTech markets in the world. With the government’s push towards a Digital India, initiatives such as UPI (Unified Payments Interface), Aadhaar-based authentication, RBI’s regulatory sandbox, and India Stack have laid the foundation for rapid FinTech innovation.
According to NASSCOM and Invest India, India’s FinTech sector is expected to reach a valuation of USD 150 billion by 2025, supported by strong mobile penetration, a youthful demographic, and a vibrant startup ecosystem. The adoption of digital wallets, peer-to-peer lending, neobanking, and AI-led financial services is revolutionising how businesses and individuals access capital and manage wealth.
This programme aligns with India’s digital economy goals by training students in digital payments and financial inclusion, blockchain-based smart contracts, cybersecurity in financial systems, data analytics for financial services, and AI/ML applications in lending, insurance, and fraud detection.
The curriculum is both industry-aligned and academically rigorous, incorporating case studies, capstone projects, internships, and real-time data analysis. Students engage in experiential learning through partnerships with FinTech companies, banks, and financial consultancies.
