This one-year top up programme seeks to improve your choice for a full honours degree qualification. It is designed with particular reference to UK, EU and overseas students, who have been unable to pursue a full degree programme in International Business and/or International Finance.
A deep understanding of the international business, flexibility and willingness to adapt are crucial in today's increasingly internationalised and dynamic business environment. The programme specifically addresses the needs of those who wish to focus their studies on the international and global aspects of business and understand the far-reaching impact of financial markets and institutions. It builds upon previously acquired business knowledge and skills and focuses on the international financial markets dimension to international business.
You'll analyse the different environments in which business operates and you will develop your understanding of international business strategy, problem solving and decision making processes, which is vital for a successful career in international business. You'll learn how businesses use financial assets in their international activities and how international business is affected by changes in the financial markets. You'll look at international banking and finance regulations and their impact on business strategies. You will keep up to date with what's happening in the world economy using case studies and you'll benefit from guest lectures given by experts in the international financial sector. We'll also help you prepare for the workplace as you'll develop the skills employers are looking for in their graduate employees, from report writing and analysis through to presentation skills.
