The MSc Finance and Management provides a good foundation in finance together with an overview of management functions within an organisation. It is an ideal qualification for anyone wanting to start or progress their career in the finance function of an organisation and then move into general management later. It is relevant to working in small business where the ability to control finances is essential, within the finance function of large business organisations, and also in public sector organisations.

The modules in the first term provide you with a foundation in financial management, investment decisions and research skills in finance, as well as an introduction to the main ideas and functions of international business and marketing. In the second term you will study corporate finance, strategy, plus four additional options. In addition, intensive computer training covering Thomson Reuters Datastream and other financial database software systems, is incorporated into relevant modules. You can select a short investment analysis dissertation as one of the options.

The programme offers a choice of the full range of options in both finance and management; it is possible to tailor this programme to match your career goals.
