Welcome from the Programme Director
Video transcript: Hi, and welcome to the MSc Finance and Finance and Private Equity programmes. My name is Daniel and I am your Programme Director. I will also be your teacher on your Corporate Finance course, so we will be seeing each other on a regular basis.
On behalf of everyone in the Department of Finance I want first to congratulate you on receiving your offer. Gaining admission to such a highly selective programme is an amazing achievement. I also want to say that we are all looking forward to meeting you in person here at the LSE campus in central London.
In the coming weeks, you will be participating in an exciting pre-sessional programme which includes career and skills development sessions, as well as events with alumni and practitioners.
The upcoming year at LSE will be really challenging, but also really rewarding in terms of your education, career, and network. Throughout your time with us, you'll get to know two key people in the programme team: you will have the support of Eleanor Eiserman, who is the Associate Programme Director, and more importantly, your Academic Mentor; and Harriet Baylore, your Programme Manager, and also your first point of contact. You will be receiving a lot of information from them as well as from some of our other colleagues here at LSE soon.
So congratulations again. The next 10 months will be an incredible experience for you. Welcome to the Department of Finance Family and see you on campus shortly.
Professor Daniel Ferreira
