What it is
You cover business and political economics, corporate finance and financial markets, law and regulation, and quantitative methods and data analysis. Alongside lectures, learning relies on projects, group work, simulations and role play led by finance professionals, with soft-skills and digital training and specialist lectures on emerging financial topics. The curriculum draws on partnerships with leaders and practitioners in the finance industry. Studying in Milan, home to the Italian Stock Exchange, multinational banks and asset managers, ties the course closely to financial practice and career development.
