Your Courses
The educational approach of our MSc Global Investment Banking reflects the intensive nature of the investment banking industry so that you will follow a rigorous timetable from the start. You will spend two concentrated, full days per week on campus for your first two semesters – usually Monday and Tuesday.
Your autumn and summer semesters will consist of taught courses and experiential learning projects that, while not credit-bearing, are designed to help you understand the logistics of a role in investment banking and expose you to the recruitment process.
