BA (Hons) Accounting with Placement Year

What's the course about?

You’ll become proficient in numerical analysis, digitised accounting, problem solving, and numerical report writing as you enhance your professional skills, such as communication and digital literacy.

Kick-start your career with exemptions from professional qualifications. Stand out from the crowd with practical experience solving real world business challenges.

While closed book exams are required to earn professional exemptions, other evaluation options such as professional report writing, group presentations and company projects, help prepare you for work.

We actively support you in boosting your CV through industry placement, study abroad or internships (including the latest online bite-sized digital experiences).

If you are interested in corporate finance and business decision making alongside accountancy, our BA (Hons) Accounting and Finance course may also be of interest.
