Recent world events have shown the importance of understanding financial decision-making, risk management and the behaviour of financial markets. Our new BSc Finance degree will prepare you for a career in economics, banking and finance, with a focus on finance.

With a wide choice of modules in the final year, you can direct your studies to your interests or career aims, from quantitative methods in finance to corporate strategy and management of technology. Assessment typically includes a combination of coursework (presentations, assignments, essay report writing, in-class tests, research and project work) and/or examinations in January and May. If a career in economics, banking or finance is your calling, this programme will provide you with an impressive entry route – in addition to opening up pathways for postgraduate studies.
