Financial services represents a highly competitive and rapidly changing sector in every modern economy. Changes in customer requirements, technology, competitive conditions and regulation create the need for managers, traders and analysts to make rapid and often far-reaching decisions about their short term operations and long term strategies. Both of these degrees offer you the opportunity to combine a broad programme of study in business or management with a specialism which focuses on financial institutions and financial markets.
Case studies form an integral part of many modules.
As well as illustrating the principles of marketing, personnel and financial management, the case studies help you develop commercial awareness, communication and presentation skills. Both of these degrees will appeal to anyone who wishes to develop practical skills oriented towards a career in the financial sector. All undergraduate degrees at University of Wales Bangor are taught within a fully modular structure. Please note that the details may vary slightly from time to time, to reflect staff availability and student demand. In each of the three years of your degree scheme, you will take 12 modules.
