The overall aim of the Programme is to provide you with a range of knowledge and skills that are relevant to the operation of modern financial services organisations.
We have designed the programme to meet the increasing demand from the financial services sector for skilled graduates. It continues to provide students with up to date and relevant learning experiences while focusing on developing the skills that are critical to the successful employment opportunities offered to our best graduates.

There is flexibility within the programme structure that allows students to follow individual specialisms, and there is the option of paid work in the financial services sector for six months during the second trimester of Year 3.

Graduating students are typically able to begin their careers with relevant firms within the sector, or use their qualification to allow entry to a wide range of Masters programmes in the UK and overseas.
