2.5-Term Pathway - Foundation Certificate for Business, Law and Social Sciences - Transfer to Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Accounting, Business Finance and Management (With a Year in Industry)

Accounting is the language of business. It gives managers, investors and governments the information they need to make financially-sound decisions.

In the increasingly complex modern business environment, there is a high demand for skilled professionals who can work flexibly in teams across business boundaries. Students will need strategic focus and the ability to influence decision making and apply judgement responsibly.

This course places accounting and finance skills in a broader business context. Students will gain the technical skills and problem solving abilities they might expect from an accounting and finance programme, but will have also have the opportunity to develop strong communication skills, a broad commercial awareness and a critical approach to business problems. An industry placement lets students put theory into practice and will give them valuable experience working in an accounting or finance role.

Accredited by a number of professional bodies, this academically challenging and vocationally relevant degree is an ideal stepping stone into careers in accountancy and management.
