International Financial Management – (M.Sc.)

The complexity of financial management in an international context poses a great challenge to those working in the global accounting environment. The MSc seeks to offer a programme of study to reflect the needs of those pursuing a career in this growing global industry.

The programme centres on an exploration of the theme of globalisation alongside which we aim to provide the tools – from accounting, finance, economics, and management – to help you understand the place of international management in the contemporary world economy.

If you have a degree in a non-finance related discipline and would like to significantly enhance your career prospects in the wider business practice of accounting and financial management, this course is ideal. It offers a rigorous and challenging programme of study that will provide you with a well-integrated knowledge of financial accounting, finance, investment, and management accounting, together with the ability to relate this to the wider issues of management and corporate strategy.

The profession requires managers who are professional, highly skilled, adaptable and innovative who can respond to change and offer creative solutions to business challenges in order to compete on a global scale. At the same time these managers need to demonstrate excellent interpersonal and communication skills, be able to reflect on their own performance and have the ability to adapt to different cultural situations.
