Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Finance - International Business (N390)

Prepare for a career in the fast-paced financial industry – and examine the interrelationships between finance and the global economy – with University of Reading's BSc Finance (International Business) degree.

Recent changes in finance – including the emergence of financial technology and the focus on sustainability – have necessitated changes throughout the industry. Additionally, globalization has led to the growing significance of multinational firms – spanning multiple countries and industries – and the consequent need to manage business operations in an increasingly complex environment.

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.

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.
