Why study it:

Finance at the Poznań University of Economics and Business (PUEB) is an interdisciplinary Bachelor's (first-cycle) programme taught in English, open to both international and Polish students. It combines general knowledge of economics and management with theoretical and practical knowledge of finance – for those who want to work with money, markets and investments.

Programme: from accounting to portfolio management

You learn how financial markets work, what drives changes in security prices and how to build efficient investment portfolios – and how to use analytical tools to make financially responsible and ethical decisions, managing finances on both a micro- and macroeconomic scale.

The programme is based on four areas: accounting (corporate and business accounting, managerial accounting, tax systems), finance (public, corporate and local government finance, the EU financial system, behavioural finance), insurance (personal and commercial insurance) and management (private asset and wealth management, portfolio management).

Qualifications: CFA Institute University Affiliation Program

Finance is part of the CFA Institute University Affiliation Program – its curriculum embeds a significant portion of the CFA Program Candidate Body of Knowledge, including the CFA Institute Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct.

After graduation: finance departments, corporations, public sector

  • financial and accounting departments – as financial analysts or brokers,
  • corporations – as advisors, portfolio managers or head accountants,
  • the public sector – in various positions,
  • their own companies.

⇑Definitions and quotes

Finance
Finance is a field that deals with the study of investments. It includes the dynamics of assets and liabilities over time under conditions of different degrees of uncertainties and risks. Finance can also be defined as the science of money management. Market participants aim to price assets based on their risk level, fundamental value, and their expected rate of return. Finance can be broken into three sub-categories: public finance, corporate finance and personal finance.
