Business · Business and management

Accounting and finance are central to managing organisations effectively. This course integrates accounting, leadership and change, and gives you a practical insight into developing the discipline. It also provides you with a firm knowledge of accounting and finance and the adaptability needed in a rapidly changing environment. This course is distinctive in its focus on using financial skills in organisations. You develop hard and soft accounting skills as well as the interpersonal skills necessary to work effectively in the challenging business environment. If you already hold a professional accounting qualification such as ACCA, CIMA and ICAEW, you only need to undertake two modules to complete the award - Current Issues in Accounting and Research, and the Accounting Dissertation. Graduates can expect to be employed in areas within industry, accounting practices or the public sector. This course provides a good stepping stone to training for a career in accountancy or a role in general management, and also provides those seeking positions in the finance industry with both specialist finance knowledge and the necessary level of understanding of accounting. Visit Teesside University’s website to apply to start in September or January. You may wish to study our two year applied route which allows you to develop practice-based solutions to real-world problems. You take on a consultancy role, working on projects or internships, identifying opportunities and ideas, before going on to present strategic solutions to the client.

Getting in

As the university states it

Applicants should normally have a good honours degree (2.2 or above) in a relevant discipline or a post-experience or professional qualification or equivalent qualifications (including international qualifications). If you do not have an honours degree but have significant appropriate work experience, you are encouraged to apply. Non-UK students must also meet the University's minimum English language requirements. This programme is open to qualified accountants who may enter with 100 credits of advanced standing, leaving them with only the Current Issues in Accounting & Research and the Accounting Dissertation to complete the award.
