Accounting and Finance

Accounting and Finance is your gateway to a career in a vast range of industries – graduates with a finance background are in high demand from employers, and can go on to work at the highest level of organisations of all kinds. The skills you develop over the three years will help you provide decision-making, planning, organisational, and financial advice to everyone from the government to digital start-ups to global brands. You’ll graduate ready to step into the workplace as a trainee Chartered Accountant, or as a management trainee. Wherever you end up, you’ll be well prepared to fly high.

This University Academy 92 (UA92) course is awarded by Lancaster University and delivered by UA92 at the UA92 campus in Manchester. For more information, take a look at our website: www.ua92.ac.uk

Character and Personal Development
Each academic year, in addition to your four subject modules, you’ll study an extra credit-bearing module, which focuses entirely on character and personal development. You’ll get to take on a real-life project, based on a live scenario, set by one of our industry partners.

You’ll experience first-hand the current issues facing the industry, get the opportunity to apply your subject knowledge, challenge your perspectives, step outside your comfort zone and build key employability skills to prepare you for your future career.

These experiences are instrumental in developing transferable skills and key competencies such as leadership, resilience and well-being, communication, problem-solving and team-working. To help you track your progress and further refine your developing skill-set, you’ll meet regularly with your own personal development coach throughout years 1 & 2.
