Course Details

Accounting and Management (BSc Econ)

Course Description

The Joint Honours degree Accounting and Management offers students the opportunity to combine the main elements of each discipline and to gain a sound knowledge of the core areas of both of these subjects. Equal weighting is given to each throughout the three years of the degree programme, and the use of core modules ensures that students have studied the essential elements of each subject. Throughout the programme of study the Accounting area is taught entirely through core modules, while the Management area offers students the opportunity to pursue topics which are of particular interest to them.
