About Us
The School has three academic departments - economics, finance and banking, and property studies. Each department offers undergraduate and postgraduate programs that are a starting point for a number of important and stimulating career paths.
Our students are taught to think analytically and develop models appropriate to understanding structural change and the consequences of decision making in the private and public sectors. These skills are especially important in forecasting, planning and strategic analysis of business opportunities.
