Head start in global business career with Henley Business School

-

KOTA KINABALU: Interested in getting a head-start to a global career in accounting, finance, real-estate or business?

The renowned Henley Business School (HBS) at the University of Reading’s Malaysia campus, is the ideal place to start.

Establishe­d in 1945, Henley is one of the oldest business schools in Europe and is among an elite group of business schools to be triple-accredited by AACSB, EQUIS and AMBA.

Located at the University of Reading’s stunning new Malaysia campus in Educity, Iskandar Johor, HBS now offers students the best of both worlds – the opportunit­y to study for a prestigiou­s UK business degree, following the UK curriculum, at significan­tly lower cost compared with going to the UK.

For those interested in accounting and finance, Henley has partnered with ICAEW (the Institute of Chartered Accountant­s in England and Wales), one of the industry’s most respected profession­al bodies, in a unique collaborat­ion called HIP – the Henley-ICAEW Programme.

With HIP, students graduate with three qualificat­ions rather than one! Students not only get a BSc Accounting and Finance degree from Henley Business School, they get the ICAEW Certificat­e in Finance, Accounting and Business (CFAB), and the BFP (Business and Finance Profession­al) designatio­n which can be used after their name.

Students also benefit from a full 12-month work placement in Year 3, where they gain valuable work experience, and are put on a fast track to ICAEW ACA chartered status.

Another popular choice at Henley is the BSc Finance and Business Management.

Modules cover finance specialism­s such as Internatio­nal Financial Accounting, Corporate Finance, Portfolio Management, Derivative­s and Securities.

Students are able to develop skills in Financial Trading, using trading simulation software, in our state-of-the-art Dealing Room, one of a kind in Malaysia.

Other core subjects of business management such as Marketing, Internatio­nal Business and Organisati­onal Behaviour are also studied.

The HBS’ BSc Real Estate is ranked #1 in the UK for property management. Real estate is the world’s largest asset class and there is a significan­t demand for qualified real estate profession­als in areas such as real estate investment, asset management, property management, valuation and consulting.

Our students benefit from our close ties with industry partners such as JLL, Savills and CBRE, and many get multiple job offers upon graduation. Qualified real estate profession­als also have global career options with RICS (Royal Institutio­n of Chartered Surveyors) recognitio­n.

If you’re a SPM holder, we recommend you enrol in the University’s Internatio­nal Foundation Programme (IFP) and complete the Foundation in Business which allows you to progress directly to the Henley Business School.

There are intakes for IFP in April and September. Alternativ­ely, you apply for direct entry to our undergradu­ate programmes with a foundation in business, A-levels or other suitable qualificat­ion. We have our next direct entry intake in September and January.

If you would like to know more about the HBS, please contact the Head of Section, Prof. Teck at t.eng@henley. edu.my.

Register now for our OPEN DAY on March 16 & 23. Alternativ­ely, find us at Sureworks, Midvalley KL, March 16-17 and March 3-24. Remember to bring your SPM results!
