ESCP Europe Advanced Master in Finance ranked 1st in the UK by the Financial Times

ESCP Europe Business School has the highest-ranked Masters in Finance in the UK according to the latest survey conducted by the Financial Times.

Taught in French and English at the ESCP Europe Paris and London campuses, the programme is number 1 in the UK for the second consecutive year and thereby consolidates its position as the best finance course available to the London market.

Worldwide, the programme ranks 1st for graduate employment rates, and 2nd for international experience out of a listing of over 50 of the world’s leading business schools.

With nearly 30 years’ experience, the Advanced Master in Finance programme is targeted at the banking and investment sectors. It has adapted to changes and market expectations, remaining relevant, by developing strong links with financial institutions and leveraging a global network of alumni, who provide regular input.

The programme’s Academic Director, Dr Philippe Thomas, says:

“This programme’s full-time, intensive format condenses and shortens the time on coursework, focusing on providing participants immediate exposure to real-life responsibilities in finance.

The first series of core courses are dedicated to Financial Techniques and aimed at providing students with the key tools necessary to understand financial issues. In the second phase of the programme, each participant chooses a 22-week specialisation, aimed at preparing for a specific finance role within finance / investment banking.
The programme relies heavily on the participation of external course instructors and lecturers who relate academic theories and concepts to practical applications in the field. Many of these experts are graduates of the ESCP Europe Specialised Master in Finance who now work at major financial institutions.”

ESCP Europe’s Dean, Dr Frank Bournois, adds:

"This ESCP Europe Advanced Master benefits directly from the unique positioning of our School. The two campuses, two countries, two languages formula is made possible by our multi-campus structure that allows students to grasp the respective characteristics of two very different marketplaces. It is particularly this presence in London, the world's financial centre that makes our programme so highly attractive."
