To pursue a Master’s in Finance in Ireland, you generally need a minimum of a Second Class Honours Grade 1 (NFQ Level 8) in a business-related field or a program with strong quantitative content, such as engineering. Since your background is in Electronics and Communication Engineering, you may need to show evidence of quantitative coursework, like mathematics or statistics. English language proficiency is required, usually demonstrated with an IELTS score of 6.5 or above. Some universities may also ask for a GMAT score or have other prerequisites. For detailed, program-specific advice, please reach out to your LeapScholar counsellor.
