You’ll study global accounting from staff with real-world experience, and put what you learn into practice in live business projects. On our four-year course with a placement year, you’ll get the chance to gain a whole 12 months of real-life, hands-on experience in industry before you graduate. We offer industry-standard facilities like our Bloomberg Financial Markets Laboratory, and our newly enhanced Business Lounge is a great space to meet with businesses, entrepreneurs and future partners.
