Our MSC Finance and Accounting is designed to enhance your professional career, develop your knowledge and understanding of the challenges involved in keeping a business liquid, competitive and profitable, and introduce you to issues around ethical and sustainable financial models. You'll develop the theoretical and applied expertise to meet the challenges of working in financial environments.
Learn the tools of the trade in our Financial Markets Trading Room, which gives real-time pricing and news feeds on shares, bonds, global indexes and interest rates. You'll learn the principles, strategies and techniques used by the world's biggest players. We'll show you how to use research to gain insight, evaluate ideas and make decisions.
