BA (Hons) Accounting with Corporate Finance

All our Joint Honours Accounting degrees involve the same compulsory accounting modules but concentrate your option choices into a specialised route. This is a full-time course studied over four years. You’ll study six modules over two trimesters per year. On successful completion of Year 3, you'll be eligible for an unclassified degree, and on successful completion of Year 4, an Honours degree. The course is also available on a part-time basis which involves fewer than six modules per year but takes longer to complete. You’ll learn by a variety of teaching methods including lectures, tutorials, workshops, directed learning and independent study. We offer tuition that is supported by experienced teaching staff and strong industry connections. Guest speakers from the corporate, government and financial worlds add value to the course. In addition, transferable skills of time management, project management, communication, collection and management of data and IT skills will serve you well in the future, whatever your career choice.
