The programme is now concentrated entirely on developing English-language communication skills in business contexts.

MSc Economics, Banking and Finance - This new Masters programme builds upon this reputation with an exciting programme of study gives equal emphasis to the study of economics, banking and finance.

The programme is informed by recent developments in research, and encourages the development of professional skills and advanced communication skills.
