Overview

Finance managers invest, manage or protect a business’s money. Employers are increasingly selective in their search for those with rich cognitive skills to get the job done.

This two-year dual award course gives students the opportunity to attain not one but two Master’s degrees and travel as they do so – studying one with Kent Business School and the other in the financial hub of Hong Kong at the Hong Kong Baptist University.
