Economics and Accounting BSc

This degree will give you the opportunity to study two interrelated subjects, providing you with a comprehensive knowledge of the key areas of economics and accounting. You will be introduced to techniques of accounting, such as financial reporting, management accounting, auditing and taxation. If you choose to take the Economics and Accounting BA you will have the opportunity to gain exemptions from certain professional exams through CIMA, ACCA and ACA (offered by the ICAEW), thus fostering your career prospects on accountancy.
