An undergraduate degree in finance will normally give you a foundation knowledge of all finance areas. This may include macro and microeconomics, statistics and accounting, financial management, international finance and international forecasting. You may also get opportunities to develop your understanding of financial markets and how finance affects the wider world.
You will mainly be taught through lectures and seminars. You may be given the chance to participate in group projects. Some universities offer chances to take part in placements, but this is not guaranteed.
China has long been regarded as a global superpower when it comes to economic, business and political standing. Its reputation as a higher education destination has taken longer to earn, but is rewarded on merit. The country's government has invested in university and higher education over the last few years, with the aim to increase the international student population. This investment has meant that there are many more courses offered in English than there were a few years ago, making China a new and exciting destination for international students.
