Description
All of our undergraduate programmes combine a range of compulsory modules that students must study in their first year with us before giving you significant freedom to pick optional modules in later years to allow you to focus in on your own interests and specialisation.
BSc Accounting is accredited by the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA), meaning that graduates will be exempt from all 9 CIMA professional examinations. Swansea also offers the maximum number of exemptions from ACCA examinations that are possible from University study. This means that graduates of this scheme may be exempt (depending on module selection) from all 9 of the ACCA ‘Fundamentals’ examinations.
