Job Opportunity Potential
The MSc International Business and Finance is your stepping stone to an exciting range of global career opportunities in fields such as risk management, consultancy, export finance, investment management and foreign exchange services.
You will be ideally placed to join the management and financial analyst training programmes of major international companies, trade and investment corporations or financial institutions. You will already have much of the knowledge you need to gain further professional qualifications while taking your career forward within these organisations.
You could also pursue a career in international trade government agencies, international business consultancies or firms involved in business process outsourcing. And you will find equally rewarding opportunities with SMEs, such as helping a small-scale exporting company to grow.
On completing your studies, you will join our worldwide network of highly successful alumni. Our graduates can be found working at HSBC Canada, PwC, Ernst & Young, the Central Bank of Oman and Imtiaz Al Arabia in Saudi Arabia. They are also pursuing careers with leading organisations in the region including Kuehne + Nagel, HL Plastics Ltd, Smiths of Derby and Nottingham City Council. Some have even set up their own international businesses.
Our Careers and Employment Service will provide you with support from day one of your course to ensure you leave Derby as a ‘work-ready’ graduate – industry aware, motivated and enterprising. Throughout your studies, you’ll also benefit from our Personal Development Planning (PDP) scheme which enables you to reflect on your learning and develop your career ambitions.
The support continues once you’ve completed your course too: you are entitled to further help and guidance from the Careers and Employment Service for up to three years after leaving the University.
