BSc Accounting and Business is an interdisciplinary programme that maintains the core focus of accounting but will give you a much broader understanding of business subjects and the wider context in which accounting operates. The programme incorporates all disciplines of the Business School and you will study compulsory and optional modules from business, management, accounting, finance, law and economics.
BSc Accounting and Business will help you develop a set of graduate skills and attributes which are hugely relevant to 21st-century businesses, such as analytical problem solving, teamwork, research and organising and communicating information. It will also prepare you for a professional career in a wide range of sectors including accountancy, e-commerce, marketing, management relations, banking and finance. Should you decide to enter the accountancy profession, the extent to which this degree programme provides exemptions from professional examinations depends upon the options you choose.
As a graduate of this programme, you will be able to gain exemptions from professional accountancy examinations by application to the relevant accounting body. The level of these exemptions will depend on the modules taken during the programme and the marks attained.
The precise modules available to you in future years may vary depending on staff availability and research interests, new topics of study, timetabling and student demand.
You may take option modules as long as any necessary prerequisites have been satisfied, where the timetable allows and if you have not already taken the module in question or an equivalent module.
Our undergraduate programmes utilise a range of teaching methods including lectures, seminars and tutorials.
Lectures
Lectures of either one or two hours in length are held once a week for the duration of each module. The aim of lectures is to give you information on ideas that are central to the module and to help you in developing your understanding of complex ideas. Many of the teaching materials for lectures are made available to you electronically to accompany the notes you take during the lecture. Lectures are given by a range of staff members, including leading professors, who integrate their latest research findings into the teaching that you receive. Guest lecturers, including members of industry, also contribute to some modules.
Seminars and tutorials
Seminars and tutorials are held either every week or every other week throughout the duration of each module. They involve an in-depth exploration of the issues covered in lectures as well as giving you the opportunity to discuss various concepts and theories and receive feedback on your written assignments. Some modules do not have tutorials and others in the final year are taught solely by tutorials.
Study hours
Timetabled contact hours, made up of lectures, seminars and tutorials, vary over the duration of programmes and between programmes and are on average between 11 and 14 hours. In addition, you will be expected to complete an average of 20-25 hours of independent or group study per week.
Assessment
Modules are assessed through a mixture of group work, coursework, project work and examinations; the weighting of each of these components will vary according to the academic requirements of the module. Coursework assignments are typically between 2,500 and 6,000 words in length and examinations are normally held at the end of the module, in January and May/June.
You must pass your first year assessments in order to proceed to the second year. There is provision for students to be referred to in examinations in August/September if they fail any exam in any year. Degree classification is awarded on the basis of performance in assessments at the end of the second and final years.
