Cass Business School (short for the Sir John Cass Business School, City of London) was established in 1966 as the City University Business School, the school changed its name in August 2002 following a donation from the Sir John Cass Foundation,[1] and was officially opened under its new name by Queen Elizabeth II in 2003.
The school is divided into the three faculties of Actuarial Science and Insurance, Finance, and Management.[2] It awards BSc (Hons), MSc, MBA and PhD degrees and is one of under 70 schools globally to be accredited by all of the AMBA in the United Kingdom,[3] EQUIS in Europe,[4] and the AACSB in the United States.[5]
History
The City University Business School was founded in 1966. The school’s MSc in Administrative Sciences began in 1967 and became the MBA in 1979.
In 2002 the school moved to new premises in the London Borough of Islington, and changed its name as part of a strategy formed by Lord Currie of Marylebone, who had become Dean the year before, to compete as an international business school in a market dominated by US universities.
The school had previously been spread out across the City of London’s mainly residential Barbican Centre development. Half of the £40 million funding for the new building came from the reserves of City University. The school also received a gift from Sir John Cass’s Foundation, founded in 1748 to educate children in the City of London. The school changed its name to reflect the support of the Foundation. Sir John Cass, whose bequest formed the basis of the Foundation’s funds, was a Sheriff of the City of London and Member of Parliament for the City in the early eighteenth century.
Rankings
In 2014, the Research Excellence Framework rated 84% of Cass Business and Management research as within the top two categories of ‘world-leading’ (4-star) or ‘internationally excellent’ (3-star).[6]
In 2015, The Financial Times ranked Cass Business School's Msc in Finance twentieth in the world, and fourth in the United Kingdom.
In the annual ranking of 'the best UK schools for working in Finance' created by EfinancialCareers, Cass Business School was ranked second.
Specialist masters courses
Cass teaches programmes including insurance and risk management, investment management, corporate finance, banking and International finance, quantitative finance, shipping, marketing, supply chain, energy, trade and finance, property valuation, mathematical trading, real estate, construction management, international accounting and finance, finance and investment, and real estate investment.
The Cass MBA is offered full-time through a one-year course, or through two years part-time Executive MBA, or two years through the modular Executive MBA.
In September 2007 Cass Business School started EMBA in collaboration with DIFC (Dubai International Financial Centre).
