Course Information

Accountancy is the process by which financial information about a business is recorded, classified, summarised, interpreted and communicated.

A major benefit is our use of guest speakers. These professionals will offer you the opportunity to discuss issues and learn from their experience. This is possible due to the high reputation our degree enjoys among the accountancy profession.
