How will I learn? You will learn through lectures, seminars and tutorials, as well as spending a significant amount of time in computer laboratories. The opportunity to apply your newly acquired knowledge at work provides still wider opportunities for learning.
Can I get work experience?
You may undertake relevant paid part-time employment (two days a week) as part of your study, gaining work experience in a business or finance-related environment. If you do so, you may base your work-related assignment on this experience. If you do not secure relevant part-time employment, you will undertake an entrepreneurial project such as a business start-up.
Where can I get a job?

You will have gained practical knowledge through your part- time work that could put you ahead of those with only academic knowledge.
