DCU's MSc in Investment, Treasury and Banking is a part-time postgraduate programme aimed at people working in financial services who wish to deepen their knowledge of financial markets and products.
The programme explores the roles of the various participants in the financial markets, the competitive structure of the markets, and the regulatory environment. It also examines how to price and hedge financial products and measure the risk of such products, both in isolation and in portfolios.
Students who complete the DCU MSc in Investment, Treasury and Banking programme will understand how value is created in financial markets and will be equipped to apply this understanding in their work.
Aims and Objectives:
The programme objectives are:
* To develop students' understanding of the concepts and theories which underpin markets and products
* To enable students to price, hedge and manage the risk embedded in financial products
* To equip students to create value in investment, treasury and banking environments.
Contents
The MSc in Investment, Treasury and Banking is delivered on a part-time basis, involving four semesters of teaching over two academic years. Each semester lasts twelve weeks.
