You must demonstrate that your English is good enough for you to successfully complete your course. For this course we require: GCSE English Language at grade 4/C; IELTS grade of 6.5 with a minimum of 6.0 in each component; or an alternative acceptable English language qualification
Accounting and financial management plays a major role in all organisations, and extends beyond just a series of mathematical techniques and processes. We want to show you the bigger picture, so you can take your career in any direction you choose.
Our course looks at the way in which accounting informs decision making and the impact of accounting information systems on organisations. Socially-responsible financial management is also an important part of the course and you'll explore the impact of financial decisions on societal welfare, the environment and company shareholders.
