Course Overview

Our MSc program is designed to develop an understanding of accounting and finance in global organizations and to provide you with important training for careers in the accounting and financial sectors.

A distinctive feature of the program is that it is designed for graduates from any discipline with a strong interest in the foundations of accounting and finance who wish to acquire analytical skills, both numerical and discursive, to pursue a career in the financial sector. You do not need to have studied in this discipline, but we recommend that students have a basic knowledge and understanding of accounting and/or business studies to make the most of this program.

The programmer also caters to those who seek a general career in business or public service but who want to know more about how the accounting and finance sector operates and how it influences stakeholders, including managers, providers of finance, and government.

General Eligibility

The program is designed for graduates from any discipline with a strong interest in the foundations of accounting and finance. However, we do recommend that you have a basic knowledge and understanding of this area of business studies.

You will have a minimum of a 2:2 Honours degree or international equivalent, one academic reference, and a good command of English.

To ensure our students have a rich learning and student experience, most of our programmers have a mix of domestic and international students. We reserve the right to close applications early to either group if application volumes suggest that this blend cannot be achieved. In addition, existing undergraduate students at the University of Hull have a guaranteed ‘Fast Track’ route to any postgraduate programmer, subject to meeting the entry criteria (excluding Social Work).
