Course summary

Available for September or January intakes.
Indicate point of entry as Year 3 when applying for this top-up degree.

Course overview:

Although an HND or foundation degree are excellent qualifications to have, you might decide that adding a financial aspect to the qualification is worth another year of study.

If you have a foundation degree, HND or equivalent in an accounting or finance-related subject, or if you wish to enhance the financial aspects you have covered in a business foundation degree or HND, this top-up degree will allow you to convert your qualification into a finance and accounting-related honours degree.

This honours degree combines general management expertise with invaluable knowledge of accounting and finance. The course is aimed specifically at developing financial management skills within a wider business context. Having an excellent understanding of both finance and accounting will give you an advantage in any profession today but particularly in the growing financial services sector.

Gain access to the London Stock Exchange Group Workspace, where you can use fast, lightweight and user-friendly technology to enhance your learning experience. Stay ahead of your peers with high-quality data, news and content.

Recognised as an Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW) Partner in Learning, working with ICAEW in the professional development of students.

After the course: Our graduates are better placed to find employment in a wide range of business, management, financial and administrative jobs, both in the UK and overseas, than those with a purely business-related degree.

You gain relevant employability skills in preparing accounting and financial reports, managing financial risk and solving ethical problems.

Many graduates go on to complete master’s degrees such as MSc Accounting and Finance, MSc Finance and Innovation and MSc International Management. Some take up professional roles as accountants, financial managers or operational managers in accounting firms, financial institutions and other companies.
