This is an applied, broad-based Masters in Finance programme which provides students with knowledge and skills to work in finance.
The teaching draws on both the internationally recognised research and extensive real world practical experience of Loughborough faculty.
You will gain an understanding of both corporate finance and investments subjects. This covers investment topics such as asset pricing and portfolio selection, as well as corporate finance topics such as cost of capital and dividend policy.
This programme is best suited to candidates who wish to gain an in-depth understanding of the whole field of finance before choosing their preferred area of specialisation.
