Enhancing skills, building networks and engaging in the wider University community
This year we will collaborate with Coventry University to organise another “Route to Finance” event – sponsored by the Charted Institute of Securities and Investment (CISI) – on Wed 22 October at Coventry University.
The event will be a great opportunity for our students of Finance, Banking, and Investment to meet and network with some industry professionals – including former graduates – who share their insights and experiences on how to get into their finance careers and build success in investment banking and investment management.
