This degree is very applicable to real life, I feel it sets me up with a very good understanding of real-world issues within finance. The modules are very niche to the topic I wanted to study such as derivative and risk, it also helps me get a foot in the door for trading and personal finance. The tutors are great and always on hand to help. It’s blended with individual work and group work. The facilities at Northumbria are standard but allow me to get the most out of my course. The Bloomberg room is pretty cool too!
