Currently enrolled in an MSC programme in finance and investment, where I'm learning more about academic English for business contexts while also exploring modules on financial analysis, valuation, and investment management. As the programme progresses, I'm learning more about markets, investment strategies, financial engineering, and machine learning, among other advanced modules. I am currently working on an important research project based on Green bonds that will give me the chance to put my academic understanding to use in practical financial situations. This project will also give me the knowledge and abilities I need to succeed in the finance and investment industry.
