Why Accounting and Finance?

Our Accounting and Finance degree gives you essential knowledge in accounting, financial markets and the global business environment. You can also specialise in subjects from taxation to environmental accounting, allowing you to pursue your own individual career ambitions. With the opportunity for an unforgettable free trip to Ho Chi Minh City (terms and conditions apply, see course web page for details), as well as placements with renowned companies such as PWC and Boots, our ‘Make It’ programme of business experiences really helps our graduates stand out from the competition. You’ll draw on the expertise of lecturers with extensive professional credentials and research experience, and be inspired by industry guest speakers. The university is one of only four in the UK to be accredited by the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA). We are also accredited by the Institute of Chartered Accountants England and Wales (ICAEW), the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA) and the Association of International Accountants (AIA). This ensures your qualification not only meets the high expectations of leading accountancy bodies, but gives you maximum exemptions from professional exams when you graduate. You will also take advantage of the cutting-edge facilities at our brand new state-of-the-art School of Business and Technology building at Oxstalls campus, Gloucester, including a live Thomson Reuters trading room and equipment you’d find in company headquarters around the globe.
