Politics and Economics degree and Investment Banking?
Hi,
I'm considering a path in finance, would these academic routes be suitable for an IBer?
I'm thinking of these joint degrees:
Southampton- Politics and Economics
Lancaster - PPE or Politics and Economics
Nottingham - Politics
York - Economics and Politics
Bristol - Politics
Leeds- Politics and Economics
Birmingham - Politics and Economics
I'm taking Economics, Politics and Philosophy at A-Level (probably, haven't decided yet, however).
I received AABC at AS-Level (A's in Economics and Politics, B in Philosophy and C in Maths). I'm plannign on re-sitting a Maths unit to get a B (hopefully).
I understand these degrees aren't the most relevant degrees.Last edited by TheSelfAcknowleged; 25-08-2011 at 16:27. -
Re: Politics and Economics degree and Investment Banking?Well I'm a bit unsure, I'd like to work in finance, no particular role in mind however (perhaps some form of accountancy, if there is an IB equivalent?).(Original post by TheBrightShadow)
im not sure what exactly do you want to do, finance in IB or something else? -

Re: Politics and Economics degree and Investment Banking?It depends PPE at Oxford no problem. Politics/Economics joint honours at UCL, LSE and Warwick is also likely to be strong enough. Once you go lower down the table, it gets harder, i.e Politics and Economics from Southampton, and well..it'll be a struggle.(Original post by 11:11)
