Financial Management MSc

Designed to impart specialist knowledge of the foundations and dynamic nature of finance, the MSc degree helps students make a vital contribution to the financial strength of their business.
Edinburgh Business School at Heriot-Watt University’s online MSc Financial Management degree has been designed to give financial professionals the ability to make a crucial contribution where it matters most in business, at the bottom line. It provides a wide-ranging understanding of financial techniques and their application – but does not require a high-level mathematical understanding of finance theories.

You will engage in a specialist study of the key areas of: corporate finance, mergers, investments, derivatives, credit risk and risk management. The knowledge you gain can be applied in practical ways. Careers in the sector depend upon a strong understanding of the foundations and dynamic nature of finance and investment behaviour. The MSc will give you that, preparing the way for a career in a wide variety of positions within the finance profession.
