Course summary
Gain a comprehensive understanding of management disciplines with specialised accounting expertise.
We've designed this new degree for students thinking about a career in accounting or general management. Get the competitive edge by graduating with both management and specialised accounting knowledge.
The course covers both financial and management accounting, and a range of options will let you specialise or take a more general approach. You’ll graduate ready for the career path you want to take.
Year 1
Your first year covers the fundamentals of accounting and management. You'll also learn about business as part of society, and the related social and environmental responsibilities.
Year 2
Build on Year 1 with more advanced core accounting and management units. You’ll continue to study both financial and management accounting. Choose from a range of optional units to either broaden your studies or specialise in certain areas.
Final year
In your final year, optional units allow you to continue to specialise in accounting or pursue interests in other business areas. You’ll also do the Individual Project. This is a chance to apply what you’ve learned on the course to a practical or academic accounting research question.
