How will I learn during this Finance and Investment Management course?
You’ll learn through a combination of lectures, seminars and workshops. The emphasis is on deepening your understanding of the intricacies of the financial world, considering the needs of each organisation and the different types of financial instruments available before moving on to the essential elements in risk management – credit and market risk, interest rate, liquidity and operational risk.
Following an introduction to key finance theories and principles, a full range of modules covers the financial investment landscape from business and financial analysis and risk, through to investment management, decision making, personal finance and more.
Alongside our teaching, you’ll benefit from a well-designed support system, to help you develop the academic study skills you need. And we make sure that we build extensive feedback, from both tutors and peers, into the course. If you’re a non-UK student, you can choose optional sessions to help you develop both your academic language and study skills.
How will I be assessed?
As well as assignments, portfolios and presentations, you’ll also complete an extended piece of work such as a dissertation, management enquiry or consultancy report. And when it comes to assessing your learning, we know that every student has different needs, strengths and topics they’re passionate about – which means your work will always be considered on an individual basis.
