A hallmark of the University of Manchester’s coveted Business School programmes is a practical focus and a globally minded approach centering people and community. The MSc in Financial Management is no exception. A combination of case studies-led lessons complemented by the latest data as well as face-to-face workshops led by the best business minds in Europe, the curriculum combines breadth and depth with an in-built flexibility easily accommodating packed schedules and life changes. For business professionals seeking that extra bit of financial knowledge to take their careers onto the next level, the MSc in Financial Management is a storehouse of knowledge and opportunities.

 

 

“With more than a decade of financial management experience under my belt, I was motivated to pursue a master’s degree in my field after my career brought me to a Chinese enterprise in 2017, which prompted a rethink of what skills a seasoned finance professional should possess. From the get-go, the University of Manchester’s Finance Management programme was the only one that ticked all my boxes. The University’s high QS global and reputation for academic excellence were immediate draws, but it’s the programme’s blended learning model – with the kind of flexibility even traditional part-time programmes couldn’t provide –that cinched the deal for me.

 

One thing I appreciated about the curriculum is how attuned to the real world it is, whether it’s the practical yet immersive approach led by case studies, or simply an aversion to rote learning.  The Capstone Project bringing the degree to its conclusion was a defining moment for me, especially since the topic in question – factors delivering a statistical impact on the Southeast Asia stock market – was highly relevant to my longstanding professional interest in Southeast Asian markets. Meeting a global cohort through workshops held in Hong Kong and Singapore workshops also helped to widen my global network.

 

 

It would be an understatement to say that studying for this programme is easy. Juggling an epic listing project at work and a newborn in the house along with intensive studies wasn’t easy, but I found my pace thanks to the programme’s flexible approach and ultimately graduated with distinction. I couldn’t be prouder – or more humbled – to find my place amongst an alumni community long celebrated for its richness and diversity.”
