Postgraduate Programmes
MSc in Global Banking and
Finance
The MSc in Global Banking and Finance exposes
course members to the latest developments in the
academic finance literature set within a practical
business context. The unique balance of both the
why and the how ensures that course members are
able to think from first principles, deal with
financial issues and contribute to the formulation
of finance related strategies upon graduation. The
aim is to develop a general manager for the
financial services industry with some specialist
insights. Softer managerial skills complement the
more quantitative aspects traditionally associated
with masters degrees in this area.
With course members to date speaking an average of
three languages each and with a truly
international educational background, seminars are
never short of a global perspective. The
programmes led by high calibre business
professionals seek to explore the latest
developments within the context of a global
environment.
Nowhere is this better illustrated than in the
module called Business in its Linguistic and
Cultural Environment. Here students examine the
relationship between culture and economic activity
in a number of societies. Linguistic abilities can
be further enhanced, subject to demand, in a
number of languages. On the MSc there are seven
core modules, the Dissertation and one elective
module.
-
All EBS London graduates leave speaking at least
two languages (some speak as many as seven).
-
Each student takes several work placements in more
than one country before they graduate.
-
All EBS London students study abroad to broaden
their international experience ahead of
graduation.
This winning combination means that our students
are much sought after by employers: year after
year we have 100% of graduates employed or in
graduate study 6 months after graduation.
