Key Course Facts

Course Description

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.

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.

**No traditional end-of-year exams*** You are assessed within each subject module – so you learn it, then you prove it. Assessment methods include individual and group work which is undertaken in a range of formats related to your subject. This may include writing an essay or producing a report, presenting findings or creating audio/visual projects. Practical assessment is favoured where possible, for example, Media and Communication students producing a Podcast, or Sports Coaching students running a coaching session. You’ll have the opportunity to learn, develop and demonstrate a wide range of practical and applied skills and competencies. *For Accounting and Finance students you will sit some exams within your modules to obtain the necessary exemptions from the ACCA.

Entry Requirements / Admissions

In addition to meeting the academic criteria, if your first language is not English, you may be asked for a recognised English language qualification. This is especially important if you are not a national of a majority English-speaking country or you haven't completed a degree in English. If you are an international student, in order to obtain a student visa, you are required to demonstrate that you have the correct level of English language competency to study in the UK.
Get advice on which foundation courses are best for you to still study Accounting and Finance, BA (Hons), if you do not meet the minimum requirements in terms of UCAS score, A levels, or English language requirements.
