Hello there,Im current completing my BA at Durham uni, in the UK... and am looking towards getting into a Msc finance degree next year. But there are a few things I need to know: - Is it a realistic option to try and get companies to sponsor me? - If so, how do I go about this? - Is it a realistic option to get a part-time job whilst studying? (Im thinking not) - How else could I finance my studies? - My parents will help abit, but Im assuming Im going to have to look towards a bog-standard bank loan or something along those lines?Many Regards,John Robinson

I don't know about companies' sponsoring.

Conducted in English? National language not a prerequisite? Thanks.

Sometimes in english, but not all the time, so you definitely have to learn the national language, at least in France. Unless......it is sometimes possible, in some universities/schools, to make your homeworks and exams in english, even if the courses are in French. In this case you very often have english documentation, and the only drawback is that you can't follow the oral course if you don't speak french, but you're able to get your degree.In fact, I've known quite a lot of chinese people who managed to get their degree with a very poor level of French, passing their exams in english (as long as math language is not the only required ).Would you be interested in any of this by the way ?PS : I'm focusing on France since I'm not aware of education policy such countries like germany, austria,...

How are the rankings made anyway ? 80% of the cited universities are american, which looks like a joke given the average mathematical level, which is clearly not above the rest of the modern world, especially Europe, India and Russia (forgive me if I forget some countries)!!!If the right measure was the level of students, I bet you would get some interesting rankings, and pretty different too... The number of publications is nonsense, since some great Universties do not have the required size, and because writing tons of bullshit never made the education given by a university better. However, I do not doubt that Toulouse has a great Financial cursus, but let's be realistic...
