Program Overview

This course offers a fully integrated degree that combines accounting and fiNAce subjects. It is designed for students who seek to broaden their knowledge in both the accounting and fiNAce disciplines.

Our accounting subjects will provide you with insight into accounting institutions (for example, audit firms), accounting regulations and accounting techniques that are used by and support organisations both inside and outside the fiNAcial market.

The fiNAce subjects explore fiNAcial institutions, fiNAcial trading, fiNAcial investment, fiNAcial regulations and structures that support the market. You will be kept up to date with current events through research-led teaching by academic experts in the field.

Our course is rigorous and draws on theory, cutting-edge research and practice to prepare you for your future career in the accounting and fiNAce field. It has a world-class reputation for producing high-quality graduates with strong quantitative skills and a global outlook.
