Covering a wide range of applied finance topics, this specialised master’s course leads to careers in corporate banking and finance, stock-market trading, insurance, investment management and other areas of applied finance.
The Master of Applied Finance is a practical course designed for graduates already working in the finance sector, as well as those with a non-finance background who wish to move into the finance area.
The curriculum complements the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) program, with topics including risk management, capital markets and international finance.
You’ll study under experienced finance professionals, including professors who have served on the Commonwealth Government Superannuation Roundtable, acted as expert witnesses in court cases, and developed an Equity Preference Index in partnership with Colonial First State.
Candidates preparing for the CFA qualification are encouraged to enrol in the Master of Applied Finance as a preparatory course.
