Genaral Information

The Victoria International Applied Finance Programme (VIAF) incorporates the Master of Applied Finance degree, the Postgraduate Diploma in Financial Analysis and the Postgraduate Diploma in Treasury Management. Part of the new millenium wave of post experience education, it is offered in 'modular' or 'fly in' mode, where personal contact time is heavily concentrated in just two sessions per trimester, with the remaining time as electronic contact, simulations and assignments. The VIAF courses are designed to fuse the traditional conceptual or textbook side of Finance and related areas of economics, law, accounting and management, with an instrumental or "hands on" capability. This means that graduates acquire immediate operational capability; they "hit the ground running".
