Full-Time MBA + Master in Financial Risk Management
Overview
A Dual Degree that combines the strategic breadth of a Full-Time MBA with a focused specialisation in Finance. Designed for candidates who want both the credibility of a general management qualification and the competitive depth of a specialist master — in a single, coherent two-year journey.
The Full-Time MBA’s AI-powered curriculum covers all core business disciplines — strategy, finance, marketing, operations and leadership. The Master in Financial Risk Management then develops vertical expertise in Finance, taking the specialisation from MBA-level awareness to genuine mastery. The two programmes are coherent by design: Year 2 goes further, not sideways.
