Accounting and Finance

2:1 or above (or international equivalent) undergraduate degree. Your degree can be in any discipline but a quantitative background/aptitude required. Such subjects include engineering, mathematics, economics and physics. We may consider other subjects if they have enough quantitative content. We may make an offer based on a lower grade if you can provide evidence of your suitability for the degree.

Develop strong technical skills in accounting and finance and learn how to apply them in real business situations. This course prepares you for a wide range of careers in either field.

You’ll build a solid foundation in accounting and finance theory and learn to analyse financial information, make informed decisions and use specialist tools such as programming, financial modelling and FinTech applications. Industry experts contribute to teaching, ensuring you engage with current issues in finance practice.

In the summer, you can choose to complete either:

• a dissertation (academic or applied), or
• an internship (competitive and not guaranteed).
