7About Faculty
Business is global and therefore finance is too. Our staff and students join us from around the world, attracted by opportunity to work alongside world-leading researchers and practitioners in finance.
We offer Masters courses for students who want to specialise in highly skilled areas of finance, such as risk management, financial engineering and fintech. Alongside these, we offer programmes for students who have studied only a little finance, economics or business previously and want to fast-track to a career in the financial sector.
- Up to six scholarships per year to support students wishing to qualify as a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA).
- We offer courses for you if you’ve studied only a small amount of finance before, as well as specialist programmes if you want to extend your knowledge.
- Our academics and practitioners regularly present at the Bank of England, the European Central Bank and the Federal Reserve.
