About Finance (Dual Award), MSc - at University of Kent

Finance managers invest, manage or protect a business's money. Employers are increasingly selective in their search for those with rich cognitive skills to get the job done.

This two-year dual award course gives students the opportunity to attain not one but two Master's degrees and travel as they do so - studying one with Kent Business School and the other in the financial hub of Hong Kong at the Hong Kong Baptist University.

During your study at Kent Business School, you build expertise in theory surrounding risk and crisis management, investments and portfolio management and detailed learning of things such as derivatives and fixed income markets.

By using our dedicated Finance simulator space - the Bloomberg Lab - you have access to real and live data to engage with and apply your newfound knowledge to.

Further details in relation to the second Master's award - MSc Mathematical Finance, can be found on Hong Kong Baptist University website.
