Business Management with Accounting (with placement year)

Want to learn from the best? You’re in the right place. Hull University Business School is accredited by AMBA and AACSB, which are held by fewer than 2% of the world’s 12,000 business programmes. So you’ll be joining a prestigious University, putting you one step ahead of other graduates.

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.

Gain real-world experience before you graduate with a placement year. Our Centre for Professional Success experts will help you in applying for placements and internships.

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.
