Course summary

Are you interested in finance and do you hold leadership qualities? Do you wish to gain vital work experience as part of your course? Overview Financial managers cover everything from strategic analysis to the collection and preparation of accounts and financial reporting. A good financial manager must be extremely proficient in the complex systems and processes of the industry whilst also being able to delegate effectively and lead a team. MSc Finance and Management is delivered by published academics and co-developed by industry leaders. It equips students with a comprehensive framework of financial theory and the practical processes required for the sector, fused with an overview of management studies. Our graduates are ready-made robust managers who can spot errors, make decisions, analyse risk and lead a team effectively. Further, our Bloomberg Finance Lab allows students to apply their learnings to real business data. Taking a 12-month industrial placement allows you to gain work experience in the UK or overseas as part of your Master's. While the placements are self-sought, the School offers support through extra-curricular engagement with our dedicated placements team. Opting for this course with a placement takes the length of your course to up to two years. Reasons to study MSc Finance and Management with Industrial Placement at Kent
