Program overview
Internet Finance, simply put, is about learning how to use internet technology to conduct financial business. You'll study the fundamentals of finance (like monetary banking and investment) and also get hands-on with tech tools such as programming, big data, and blockchain. Core courses include Introduction to Internet Finance, Mobile Payments & E-Banking, Financial Big Data Analytics, Blockchain & Digital Currency, and Risk Management. This major is perfect for students who are interested in finance, don't shy away from technology, and maybe even want to write some code themselves. Chinese universities have a clear advantage here: thanks to the rapid development of mobile payments (like Alipay and WeChat Pay) and digital finance in China, many schools partner with companies like Ant Group and Tencent, giving you real-world exposure to business scenarios and cases. If you enjoy hands-on practice and care about how technology is changing lives, this major will be a great fit.
