Overview

With a specially designed curriculum, the Applied Science programme from Queen Mary University of London will take a block teaching approach which is strongly supported with online independent learning activities and workplace learning.

In particular, the block-teaching approach for the on-campus teaching enables apprentices to have uninterrupted periods on the trading floor outside of the on-campus periods, which is essential for their understanding of how financial markets operate.

Career opportunities:

Apprentices will undertake a range of taught, work-based and professional modules, developing your skills to become a highly competent professional who excels in the financial sector.

Upon successful completion of the CertHE Applied Finance studies (Year 1 and 2) apprentices are expected to progress onto the BSc (Econ) Applied Finance studies (Year 3 and 4).

Career support:

The CertHE in Applied Finance is designed for those who are new to the Financial Services sector and are beginning their career journey, or those who have some experience in the field and are interested in advancing their careers.

Apprentices will have access to the School of Economics and Finance dedicated careers support and activities.
