Learn how to tackle corporate finance in the real world
Learn to make smart financial management decisions that
maximize company value, limit risk, and optimize financial
performance. You’ll study ways to fund investments, free up
capital, and decrease costs in a variety of contexts and, by
understanding the nuts and bolts of the business and what
drives the numbers, learn how to advise on which activities
drive profitable growth.

Being a successful member of a finance team in a
multinational corporation requires more than a mastery
of numbers. You need to understand how to work in
cross-cultural teams and lead in unstable global markets.
This degree is designed to equip you with both the
technical and leadership skills to thrive in an international
corporate environment.
