Course Details

Banking and Finance with a European Language (German) (BSc Econ)

Course Description

Cardiff University is one of the relatively few traditional universities offering a Banking and Finance degree programme. It is of particular interest to those wishing to enter the financial sector as it can provide students with the opportunity to acquire specialist economic knowledge of the operation of the monetary and financial sectors. This programme of study provides you not only with training relevant to the practice of banking and other financial careers, but also with exemption from certain examinations of the Chartered Institute of Bankers. German is the native language of nearly one hundred million people. To speak German is to be in touch with a vibrant cultural and political world. In addition, Germany's economic and political role in Europe makes a deep knowledge of German language and Germanic culture a great asset in life. A recent survey by the UK's leading employers' organisation CBI rates German as the language most valued by UK managers. German is one of the two key languages of the EU and very useful if you want to work for EU institutions.
