We are focused on your learning experience, and this course is taught by lecturers with extensive industry experience, in workshop style classes that encourage greater interaction.

NEW MSc Corporate Financial Management with Professional Practice

Sharing the first year of study with the 1-year MSc Corporate Financial Management, the 2-year programme benefits from a second year of Professional Practice that is specifically aimed at fostering the employment opportunities of students.

Offering greater flexibility than a traditional Placement Year, our Professional Practice Year allows you to decide how to put your skills into practice. Choose between an academic dissertation, business plan, business or consultancy project, or a paid placement in industry, depending on the option that is best suited to your future career path.
