MSC TAXATION PROFILECLASS OF 2020/21

The Law Faculty and the Centre for Business Taxation are very pleased to welcome the fifth cohort of students onto the MSc in Taxation in September 2020.

Once again, we are delighted to have an excellent group of students from a wide range of countries and with different backgrounds including law, accountancy, economics and finance. This diversity continues to be a strength of the programme and will enhance your experience at Oxford. This profile book showcases your diverse and impressive profiles.

We are certain that your two years at Oxford will be enriching and rewarding, and we very much look forward to getting to know and to work with you.

Tsilly Dagan, Michael Devereux, Glen Loutzenhiser & John VellaMSc in Taxation Course Directors

The Oxford MSc in Taxation is a two-year part-time postgraduate degree offered by the Oxford University Faculty of Law, and is taught in association with the Oxford University Centre for Business Taxation based at Saïd Business School.

Unusual among Taxation degrees, the MSc in Taxation has been designed by a combination of lawyers and economists. The teaching is carried out by a team of leading tax academics and practitioners. An element of interdisciplinarity runs through the whole degree and, in addition, its in-built flexibility allows students to tailor their studies to their individual preferences.

The increased focus on taxation by politicians and the media, as well as the ever-increasing technical demands of the subject and the pace of change at an international level, means that there has never been a more important time to study taxation from a range of perspectives. This is the experience that the Oxford MSc in Taxation offers.
