The dynamic landscape of financial markets, institutions, and corporations has heightened the need for finance professionals—such as financial managers in multinational firms, investment analysts in securities companies, bank loan officers, and capital market traders—to thoroughly grasp the principles and applications of financial market operations and corporate financial strategy. Expertise in cutting-edge risk assessment, portfolio management, synthetic product design, modeling methods, financial analysis, and valuation is crucial for anyone directly engaged in financial activities or seeking deeper insights into this vital aspect of business management.
Bangor's MSc and MA Finance programs provide a distinctive chance to explore the drivers and implications of contemporary trends in finance and corporate sectors, while delving into advanced theories and practices concerning financial markets and corporate financial management.
With these goals in focus, Bangor's MSc and MA Finance curricula are tailored to enhance participants' existing expertise through specialized advanced coursework. A key aim is to equip students with analytical skills aligned with the newest theoretical and practical advancements in corporate finance and capital markets. These programs offer a structured theoretical foundation across various topics, prioritizing real-world application of financial methods.
The option to pursue either an MSc or MA in Finance enables students to select between a more technical MSc (featuring mandatory Financial Econometrics) or a less quantitative MA (where Financial Econometrics is optional). The MSc may better suit those with prior math, statistics, or econometrics experience, while the MA caters to learners preferring a primarily qualitative approach. Both degrees require a Research Methods module covering quantitative and qualitative techniques. Students can typically switch between the MSc and MA programs early in their studies, provided they meet the respective module requirements.

Entry to the MSc Finance requires a 2(ii) undergraduate degree in a relevant subject, e.g. economics, finance, accounting or management from a university, or a similar qualification from any other institution. Alternatively, possession of a suitable professional qualification and relevant practical experience may also be accepted. In general, however, applicants are judged on their individual merits and age, work experience and other factors are also considered.
