This advanced programme is for students who have already studied accounting and/ or finance, at undergraduate level.

This close affiliation with the CFA, a global association of investment professionals that sets the standard for excellence in industry, will enhance your career prospects and give you the edge to thrive in today’s competitive world.
WHY INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AT SWANSEA?
Students must attain a 2:2 (or overseas equivalent) in an undergraduate degree that has included a range of modules in accounting/finance or quantitative/statistical methods. This need not necessarily be a degree with accounting or finance in the title.
We consider all applications on their merits and will look at each individual case before making an offer so students who fall slightly short of the entry criteria should still apply to the School of Management.
