Course programme
Hands-on real-world experience makes a huge difference when it comes to landing a great graduate job. It also has a really positive impact on your studies, with many placement students achieving exceptional grades in their final year.
That’s why, at Hertfordshire, we strongly encourage you to take a paid work placement as part of your accounting degree. It can be a year-long assignment between your Second Year and Third Year, or two shorter placements during the summers after your First and Second Year. If you choose the year-long placement, you won’t pay tuition fees for that academic year.
