Finance is a stimulating and challenging discipline that offers a wide range of exciting and dynamic careers across the Financial industry. Our MSc Finance has been designed to produce graduates that meet the demands of employers. The application of finance theory to real world problems is a consistent theme running through our modules.

In combination, these modules deliver skills that will positively differentiate our graduates in the job market.
