A very warm welcome to our MSc in Finance and Management. The Economics and Management programme groups, both in the Keele Management School, offer an MSc in Finance and Management designed for students who wish to follow a career in the investment management industry or as a financial officer within a commercial or public organisation.
The School has an international faculty that is experienced in offering a range of courses on management and finance. The two programme groups can now jointly offer an MSc in Finance and Management that will help develop students´ skills and knowledge in the area of Finance and management and help prepare them for their future careers.
All applicants must hold at least a second-class honours degree ( 2.2 or above) or overseas equivalent, in a business related area demonstrating quantitative content or in an alternative quantitative subject. Students who have appropriate professional qualifications or relevant work experience may also be considered. The University uses a range of relevant selection criteria including academic qualifications, professional experience, evidence of likely commitment to academic study, and an estimate of a candidate’s future potential.
Anyone applying from a country where English is not the first language is required to take one of the internationally recognised English language tests such as Academic IELTS or equivalent English language qualification. The minimum entry is IELTS 6.5 or equivalent English language test scores with a minimum of 5.5 in each subtest.
For overseas students who do not meet all direct entry requirements, the opportunity to take an intensive pre-MSC programme leading to MSc entry may be offered.
The course provides students with career related skills and expertise. Typical career destinations may include employment in the investment management industry or as a financial officer within a commercial or public organisation.
