Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Banking and Finance (Optional Placement Year)

Program Overview

This programme in Banking and Finance will allow you to develop specialist knowledge of the financial intermediaries, markets and institutions which lie at the heart of modern economies. You will learn about the roles that banks and central banks fulfil in providing credit and liquidity to the economy and in mitigating and managing risks. You will also learn about the ability of financial markets to satisfy similar roles. You will develop knowledge and skills which are highly valued by employers within the financial sector, which will provide a firm foundation for your future career.

Bangor Business School is one of the longest established providers of banking and finance teaching in the world. The Banking and Finance programme has been evolving since 1969. We have a global reputation for research in banking and are currently ranked highest of all UK universities (RePEc, August 2021).

Banks and financial markets play a crucial role intermediating between savers and investors with excess funds and individuals, firms or governments with needs for those funds. Money markets, bond markets, equity markets and derivatives markets involve different forms of intermediation, based on a variety of financial instruments which distribute risks and returns differently between lenders and borrowers. 

Placement
This course is available with a Placement Year option where you will study for 1 additional year. The Placement Year is undertaken at the end of the second year and students are away for the whole of the academic year.

The Placement Year provides you with a fantastic opportunity to broaden your horizons and develop valuable skills and contacts through working with a self-sourced organisation relevant to your degree subject. The minimum period in placement (at one or more locations) is seven calendar months; more usually you would spend 10-12 months with a placement provider. You would normally start sometime in the period June to September of your second year and finish between June and September the following year. Placements can be UK-based or overseas and you will work with staff to plan and finalise the placement arrangements.

You will be expected to find and arrange a suitable placement to complement your degree and will be fully supported throughout by a dedicated member of staff at your academic School and the University’s Skills and Employability Services.
