Key features
The degree is developed and taught by leading experts at University College London's (UCL) School of Management. UCL is one of the most prestigious universities in the world, ranked eighth in the world in the 2023 QS World University rankings.
Far from being a traditional maths-heavy finance programme, this MSc teaches essential analytical and critical thinking skills that will help you in any role or function. Quantitative topics are taught 'from scratch', and teaching staff will do everything possible to ensure you have the self-confidence to handle more complex topics.
Choose between supported online learning or enrolling at one of our Recognised Teaching Centres in your home country for face-to-face tuition support. The degree's flexibility means there's no need to put your career on hold, and you can put your learning into practice immediately at work.
Our Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) gives you access to a range of engaging content, from study materials to revision guides, and forums to connect with your tutors and fellow students. You'll also use the innovative and award-winning simulation tool Icarus, developed by academics from UCL's School of Management.
After you graduate, you'll continue to enjoy a lifelong link to the University of London, with benefits including global alumni events and free online courses. You'll join our distinguished community of graduates around the world, which includes Nobel prize-winners and industry leaders.
Alongside your studies, the University of London Careers Service will provide opportunities to support the development and strengthening of your global employability skills.
To qualify to register for the MSc or individual modules, you will need a bachelor's degree which is considered at least comparable to a UK upper second class honours degree from an institution acceptable to the University.
This degree is appropriate for those wishing to develop their knowledge of and exposure to technical elements of accounting and financial management and their applications within corporate life, from both operational and strategic perspectives.
You will develop an understanding of the areas that finance managers would encounter on a daily basis, complemented by engagements with selected specialist issues.
