Macquarie University is unique in that we approach the ‘science’ of Finance from the perspective of Accounting, Economics, Actuarial and Management to apply multiple perspectives to complex and unique market or corporate issues. Furthermore, we go one step further through our Applied Finance Centre, which attracts leading finance professionals to share their expertise and thought leadership, and provide a finance-specific hub for exploration and sharing of ideas.
