Financial Economics and Banking

At Coventry University London, you’ll be surrounded by hundreds of financial institutions. We’re just a few minutes’ walk from the traditional financial district (which includes the Bank of England and the London Stock Exchange) and we’re also within view of Canary Wharf, the new financial district in East London. We can arrange visits to these centres, and you may apply to have the opportunity to do an internship there.

This course provides the ideal blend of academic theory and hands-on experience. In class, you’ll have the chance to work on practical exercises such as case studies and banking or trading simulations. You’ll have the opportunity to do real workplace tasks using industry-standard technology, and we encourage contact with financial firms which may be through work experience and visits to companies and institutions.
