You will study the core areas of financial reporting and management accounting. This degree also focuses on financial markets, corporate finance, business strategy and ethical considerations. The study of accounting and finance will progress through this programme, so that you gain a critical grasp of core theory and extensive professional skills involving application and analysis. The difference between this degree and BSc Accounting and Finance is that it includes an additional one-year work placement after the second year. The final year of the programme enables you to choose optional modules, tailoring your degree towards your own interests and aims. You will graduate with professional and technical skills that will be immediately transferable to the business environment. This course offers the opportunity to apply for credit for prior learning from three major accounting bodies: ICAEW, ACCA and CIMA. This degree also offers you the opportunity to transfer to our campus in Malaysia for one year, while still completing the programme in a total of three years. This offers you a fascinating cultural experience, international perspective and the added bonus of reduced fees for this year.
