Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Business and Finance (Sandwich Year)

Coventry's Business and Finance BSc (Hons) course focuses on teaching and training students, aiming to provide them with sound financial knowledge placed in a business context. Students will gain a firm understanding of the role of business in society and how finance can impact on and be used to improve business performance.

Professional experience and skills development are embedded throughout the course with different opportunities. Students will hear from current practitioners (subject to availability), take part in trade games, and discuss contemporary issues, such as sustainability, previous financial crises and technological innovation. The course also features modules that give students the opportunity to develop their employability skills, across both finance and leadership, to allow them the opportunity to explore the skills that may be needed to progress in their potential future careers.

Coventry currently has excellent links with national and international employers, like PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), Grant Thornton, Ernst & Young, IBM and Jaguar Land Rover.

Students will also have the opportunity to work on the school's Trading Floor, one of the largest of its kind in Europe, which is equipped with 42 dual-screen Bloomberg terminals and a variety of industry standard software, allowing students the opportunity to explore how to put theory into practice.
