Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Finance - Investments (N301)

Prepare for a career in the fast-paced industries of investment banking, asset management, corporate finance or general accounting with University of Reading's BSc Finance (Investments) degree. Recent changes in finance – including the emergence of financial technology and the focus on sustainability – have necessitated changes throughout the industry. Develop the key skills and knowledge to meet these changes head-on, as students gain a deep understanding of finance and the financial services industry.

University of Reading's focus on self-development aims to prepare students for the external market – from internships and placements to full-time employment. The skills required to secure, and succeed, in future roles are embedded into the curriculum.

For example, students will undertake a group project on portfolio management in the second year. Within this project, students will have the opportunity to put their quantitative skills and knowledge of investment analysis into practice, gain new experiences, and open themselves up to new ways of thinking.
