Blending business management with financial analysis, this degree ensures you not only know how to lead the way in business, but also how to understand and interpret accounts and financial data. You’ll work with industry-leading data sources, with the option to take specialist modules in financial reporting, management accounting and auditing.

Broaden your horizons with a year of study at one of our partner universities across Europe, Asia, North America, or Australia. Gain new skills, build international contacts, and immerse yourself in a different culture and environment.

You’ll also graduate part-qualified with significant exemptions from essential exams, giving you a faster route to professional qualifications. And that means you could start on a higher salary.

Whether you’re looking to immerse yourself in the accounting industry or apply your new skills to start your own business, our strong industry ties mean you’ll have the support you need to thrive. You’ll have access to resources to help you find placements and employer projects, as well as a network of potential mentors.

You don't have to be an accountant if you take this degree, but over half of graduates take a look at the rewards on offer for accountancy trainees and go into the job. Many others go into other parts of the finance industry as advisors or book-keepers, and some go into management or marketing. London is very popular for accountancy graduates going into their first job, but it's also quite common to work in Scotland, with Glasgow a perennial hotbed of Scottish accountancy recruitment. If you want to find a job in finance as an accountancy graduates, recruitment agencies were particularly important last year, so try to get in touch with one as soon as you can to improve your chances.
