MSc/PgD/PgC in Banking & Finance

You will be taught by academically qualified and enthusiastic staff with research and consultancy experience and links to the industry. Your high-quality learning experience comprises lectures and discussions supported by group work, presentations, statistical computer labs and case studies. All modules are also supported by Moodle, the virtual learning environment.

There is a commonly shared spine within these programmes which overlaps with existing Masters's level programmes within Cardiff School of Management. Consequently, students will, for some modules, be taught with students in the MBA and MSc Financial Management programmes. The teaching team consider this a strength of the portfolio.

Applicants should meet one of the following:

Possess, or expect to obtain, an undergraduate degree or equivalent, in a relevant area (Accounting, Banking, Economics or Finance) with a minimum of a 2:2 classification. Students with a general Business Studies degree with a relevant pathway or substantive appropriate module coverage will be considered on a case-by-case basis

Have a minimum of five years of relevant work experience in the field of finance

Hold a suitable professional qualification from an appropriate professional body. In some instances, those with higher level professional qualifications may be exempt from specific taught modules. Such exemptions would be discussed on a case-by-case basis with the Programme Director.
