Location of Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences
The curriculum of the Master programme consists of core modules, specialisation modules and elective modules. This design was adopted to create a combination of knowledge, skills and competencies.
A financial manager has to know how risk is defined, what the links are between risk and the opportunity costs of capital, and he/she can cope with risk in practical situations. In order to be accepted, projects need to show a positive net present value, and thus increase the firm's value. Another question is how dividend policy affects a firm's value. Dividend decisions are often mixed up with investment and financing decisions, but dividend policy should be isolated from other problems of financial management. The choice of capital structure is fundamentally a marketing problem: the firm can issue dozens of securities in countless combinations, but it attempts to find the particular combination of equity and debt that maximises the firm's overall value.
