MSc Climate Change Finance and Investment

[Axelle, MSc Climate Change Finance and Investment student]
I knew I wanted to study at this university. It was a really prestigious university,and it came very highly recommended. What attracted me to the University of Edinburgh was not just the amazing lecturers who are really leaders in their fields, but it was also the course itself.

[Mengfei Jiang, Programme Director]
Our rigourous courses cover essential areas such as Climate Policy and Carbon Pricing.

One of the things I loved about our programme, was every assignment that we did at the end of a course had a very practical lens to it. You know, these are all things that when I look back, and I look at my current job, these are skills that are very applicable.

Our students, they get the benefit from access to leading experts, industry practitioners and guest speakers from NGOs and the financial sector.

The highlights of this programme have really been working with the professors. So many of them are at the top of their field and have really incredible insight into the issue area as it evolves.

One of the really cool things was the access to the faculty that you have at the Climate Change Finance and Investment programme. You know, there's always those 5 to 15 minutes after the class ends and you can ask any question. And I think that's just a really wonderful experience to be able to learn from these people, and them have time for you.

[Grace]
Another benefit of being in such a global programme is all of the connections I've been able to make. It's incredible finding people that are interested in the same issues that you are, but approaching it from so many different ways.

[Axelle]
I also did the consultancy project, which really gave us real-life experience with how to provide consultancy to a business.

[Sebastien]
I think one of the big things that you learn in the consultancy project is just how important fully understanding a problem is. And that's a big part of what we do at my firm and what I do on a day-to-day basis.

[Axelle]
Getting the chance to learn about climate change, in a country that's leading in climate change, is a great experience for me. I was really inspired by some of the speakers. It's not just about the courses that we're learning, but also the experiences. Getting the chance to learn from people that are actually doing, making those impacts

[Sebastien]
But now I realise that I haven't really answered their question!
