The Department of Finance and Insurance, which is Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) accredited, collaborates with well-known organisations to offer a wide range of student development activities, including exchange programmes and internships.

New! Insurance Technology Concentration

Students will develop a clear understanding of how financial and insurance companies, as well as their operators, invest in IT and related technologies to improve customer experience and reduce operational costs. Graduates under this concentration will be equipped with the skills and knowledge necessary to navigate the complexities of the insurance industry, ensuring they can actively participate in the growth and innovation of the insurance industry.
