The ideal starting point for a career in the finance and business sectors, the BSc in Accounting and Finance is also a great choice for students wishing to gain professional accounting qualifications.

From legal and business environments to understanding the practices of accountancy in a market economy and taxation, you’ll cover all of the key topics to enable you to develop your knowledge.

And you’ll be able to gain exemptions from professional accountancy examinations, by applying to the relevant accounting body.


What will I study?

All students complete modules tailored to your chosen degree subjects.

How will I be assessed?

Assessment is both formative and summative, designed not simply to pass or fail students, but to help you build on your successes and meet the requirements for entry to the second year of a degree. Marks from the International Year One programme do not count towards the final degree, but help the university assess your abilities in your chosen field of study.

You are assessed through a combination of examinations and coursework, which may include:

  • essays
  • reports
  • practical exercises
  • group and individual research projects
  • oral presentations
  • seminar discussions
  • class tests
  • problem solving exercises.
