Minimum academic credentials: At least a Second‑Class Honours, Grade I (2H1) with NFQ Level 8 equivalence (Indian GPA roughly 6.5 – 7.5/10 or 65–75%) in a business-related degree (e.g. Commerce, Accounting, Finance, Economics, Business Studies) OR A 2H1 equivalent in a cognate quantitative discipline (e.g. Engineering, Science, Mathematics, Statistics, Computer Science). Eligibility considered on a case‑by‑case basis under Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) — stronger profiles (quantitative modules, high scores in final years, relevant internships) will improve chances.
Indian students should have taken quantitative modules, such as Financial Accounting, Corporate Finance, Statistics or Calculus at undergraduate level to demonstrate numeracy.
A business degree with at least one quantitative course would strengthen the application.
If from a non-business background (e.g. engineering or science), transcripts should show strong marks in mathematics, statistics, finance‑related electives or quantitative subjects.
Those with minimal exposure may still apply but could be asked to show readiness or relevant work experience.
The programme includes modules in Project Finance, Investments, Capital Markets, Risk Management, Corporate Restructuring, Equity Valuation, and a Professional Development module focusing on Excel, presentations and teamwork skills.
