Our Mathematics and Accounting and Financial Management BSC (Hons) degree is equally divided between maths and accounting, providing the ideal platform for those who want to build a career in corporate finance.

Evenly divided between the two main subject areas, our Mathematics and Accounting and Financial Management BSc (Hons) degree draws upon the expertise of both the Department of Mathematical Sciences and the University’s School of Business and Economics.

Over the duration of the BSc Mathematics and Accounting and Financial Management degree you will combine training in the fundamentals of mathematics (such as mathematical methods, linear algebra, probability and statistics, and complex variables) with modules essential to your potential future career (financial accounting, law, markets, derivatives, macro- and microeconomics).
