Description: London is the most important financial capital in Europe. This program aims to expose students to how business is conducted across various sectors of the City economy, including financial services, management consulting and investment banking. This program leverages the business relationships of our own management team to program a series of site visits that include access to senior executives at leading firms in London. For most undergraduate business students, the program site visits should provide a view into a world that they have not been previously exposed to and that will broaden their business horizons.
