Course Overview
The Bachelor of Science in Accounting has been developed to meet the needs of modern businesses and financial organisations. The curriculum combines accounting principles with finance, taxation, auditing, business communication, economics, statistics, and information systems. Students build practical skills that employers expect from accounting graduates.
The programme is recognised for its quality standards and supports students who plan to continue with professional accounting qualifications such as ACCA and ICAEW. Graduates work in accounting and audit firms, banks, investment companies, government departments, educational institutions, and multinational companies.
