Want to study for an MBA, but don't have enough confidence in financial basics? This Business Management and Administration course prepares you to study finance on an MBA programme and business in general. In this course you will discover which and how to use fundamental financial tools in the area of management and thus understand the common financial situations faced in everyday life.
The course, promoted by Imperial College Business School, lasts approximately 6 weeks and students are expected to invest between 2 and 4 hours per week. As head trainer, students will rely on Professor Robert Kosowski.
The most relevant financial topics will be taught, such as "present value", capital budgeting, equity, securities, diversification, CAPM (Capital Asset Pricing Model) and others, often discussed and explored in large scale and detail in MBA programmes around the world, as well as in daily business operations.
With a fully online course, you can work wherever and whenever you want: whether at home, at work, at coffee or even while travelling.
One of the most important points of this course is that it uses a "supported learning" model, i.e. to help you get better learning outcomes and make the most of the course, Imperial College Business School provides a specialised online tutor who will help you through the learning materials and associated activities, from exercises to their resolution, as well as videos.
No financial knowledge is required in advance. Join the more than 50,000 enrolments, develop your skills and start your journey through the financial world.
