Alternative Investment Funds (N1596)
15 credits, Level 6
Autumn teaching
Alternative investment funds play an increasingly important role in how:
-
companies raise capital
-
investors build portfolios.
On this module, you’ll explore:
-
the opportunities these investments offer and the risks they present
-
how artificial intelligence (AI) can support the research, analysis and evaluation of alternative funds.
We regularly review our modules to incorporate student feedback, staff expertise, as well as the latest research and teaching methodology. We’re planning to run these modules in the academic year 2026/27. However, there may be changes to these modules in response to feedback, staff availability, student demand or updates to our curriculum.
We’ll make sure to let you know of any material changes to modules at the earliest opportunity.
