CISI Partners With University Of London To Offer Masters Degree

Students at Queen Mary, University of London will now have the option of completing the Chartered Institute for Securities & Investment’s Masters in wealth management.

The opportunity follows the agreement signed between
CISI and Queen Mary that recognises the university’s School of Economics and Finance as a centre of excellence in the field of financial services. This marks CISI’s first formal link between a university and its Masters degree programme.

“This partnership between a Chartered professional body and a higher education institution is an excellent opportunity for students to bridge the gap between academia and the work place and will provide them with an important competitive edge in the jobs market,” said Ruth Martin, CISI managing director.

The agreement also means that Queen Mary will finance students’ CISI membership applications.

Based in the City of London, CISI is the professional body which sets examinations and offers qualifications for those working, or looking to work in, the wealth management industry.
