Comments about Master International Finance with CERAM, Nice - At the institution - Harrow - Greater London

• Objectives
  This course is designed to provide you with expertise in international finance and enable you to pursue a career within finance. Whilst having a strong disciplinary base in international finance, students will draw on other cognate disciplines including accounting and economics, and so be able to work with specialists in other areas and to present findings and analysis to non-specialists. The degree is open to individuals with no detailed prior knowledge of international finance. To that extent the programme can provide you with a career change vehicle if you are currently engaged in work or study outside international finance. Students can study for one semester at CERAM in the science and technology business park at Sophia Antipolis, Nice, France.
• Entry requirements
  i) a UK Honours degree (minimum Second Class) or overseas equivalent in accounting, economics or business studies; or ii) a UK Honours degree (or overseas equivalent) in another area plus evidence of quantitative skills and computer literacy, with some familiarity with business subjects gained through work experience; iii) to have attained an IELTS average score of 6.5 or the equivalent (for candidates whose previous education has not been in English).
