Accounting and Finance

OVERVIEW

By studying our accounting and finance degree, you’ll explore every aspect of the subject and learn to support businesses across different sectors. You’ll focus on the fundamentals of accounting and finance and as you master the basics, we’ll start to explore other areas like governance, ethics and law.

Throughout your time with us, to help you develop the skills you need to stand out, we’ll assess you in different ways. Instead of a formal exam, you might prepare a presentation, write a report, or work in groups to solve a business problem. We’ll also provide work integrated learning experiences to enhance your employability skills and career readiness.

Digitalisation has transformed this sector, so you won’t be spending hours working out calculations on paper. We’ll show you how to use the latest software and AI that professionals use in practice.

This course has a foundation year available.
