Academic Program

The undergraduate International Finance program aims to graduate students with the skills necessary to master the techniques and approaches in the forefront of modern finance and who adhere to the highest standards of business and personal ethics.

As the program places a strong emphasis both on theoretical foundations and applied financial economics, our graduates will be able to serve in financial services, corporate sector and the public sector alike. We also believe that some of our graduates will pursue graduate studies.

The key functions of financial services are considered as: promotion and pooling of local savings; allocation of capital into productive investments in the real economy; facilitation of the exchange of goods and services; and management of risk. The program has three broad areas of concentration allowing students to focus on their choice: Banking and Financial Institutions; Corporate Finance; and Financial Instruments and Portfolio Management.

The main difference that sets the Faculty of Business International Finance program apart from others in the country is its flexible learning system allowing for interdisciplinary interactions, allowing students to shape their education through a blend of finance, business and other field courses offered in the University.
