    Dear all,

    I find it quite appealing that there is the possibility to earn the MSc Financial Management at Heriot-Watt University (Edinburgh Business School) MSc Financial Management at Heriot-Watt University (Edinburgh Business School) by "just" finishing the 9 courses without writing and extra thesis.
    Although EBS seems to be well known in this forum, I am wondering about the fact that there is no accreditation for it?
    But my main question is if you know any more Master programmes where you don't have to write a thesis at the end? (Finace // Accounting area?)

    HW is royal chartered, I think that should make it equal to the RA.

    Even though they are "just" 9 courses, the exams are very difficult. The year I took the Finance exam for the MBA program, the failure rate was around 50%.

    Many schools offer non-thesis options with their master's programs now, particularly with their online programs.

    Really? Is it possible to name a few without the thesis option? Preferable in Europe. Maybe thats the reason I haven't found more, because I wasn't looking to deep into US-universities.
