The UK-China cross-border master Programme requires students to study across two Campuses: one year at the Peking University HSBC Business School - UK Campus (henceforth “UK Campus”), and another year at Peking University HSBC Business School – Shenzhen, China Campus (henceforth “the School"). The Programme provides students with an opportunity to gain more international learning experiences during their two-year full-time study at Peking University (PKU) in study of management and finance at the postgraduate level (Level 7). Students who have successfully completed the two-year study Programme will be awarded the Masters of Arts degree from Peking University. The Programme aims to equip students with the necessary expertise to pursue careers in banking, investment and fund management, consulting, and public administration in finance. It will also provide the foundational and advance knowledge in financial and economic theories required by students to embark on further advanced research in academia. The Programme also prepares students for the examination towards the professional qualification of Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) as the courses are recognised by the CFA for study of finance to the examination for the professional qualification. The Programme also aims to help students in building analytical abilities and the practical application of economic and financial theories in investigating issues relating to banking and financial markets.
