Program Overview

Are you looking for an Accounting and Finance degree to give you a competitive edge? The BSc Accounting and Finance degree at Swansea University will do just that.
If you want a career at one of the ‘big four’ firms (Deloitte, EY, KPMG or PwC), or if see yourself as an accountant for a government body, small or large business, not-for-profit organisation, or individual, the BSc Accounting and Finance degree will equip you with everything you need.

Equally, if you are seeking a future in the lucrative and powerful world of banking and finance, our course presents an excellent route.

This degree is perfect if you have a committed interest in both accounting and finance (including management accounting, financial accounting, and corporate finance). As well as a strong foundation in both accounting and finance, it offers a range of optional modules to help develop your interests.

Pioneering research and industry knowledge informs our teaching, while expert academics will help to build the skills which are vital to your performance in the accounting and finance sector.

Your Accounting and Finance Experience:
Accounting and Finance at Swansea is a flexible degree with the chance to study abroad for a year, or work in industry for a year. This can give you a real competitive advantage and will broaden your horizons when it comes to seeking employment.

Your Accounting and Finance experience will benefit from a wide selection of optional modules in later years of study, allowing you to shape the degree towards your career goals.

Teaching at Swansea is partly informed by research, and our staff have hands-on experience of theory and practice, meaning you can benefit from their academic expertise and real-world know-how.

As well as setting you up for a career as an accounting and finance specialist, within a business or organisation, we also have support services available to help you start your own business. This is particularly useful for those students wanting to become independent accountants or financial advisors.

During your time with us, you will also have full access to our cutting edge video and digital content creation suite and state-of-the-art facilities at the School of Management, including the Fujitsu Innovation Hub and presentation rooms.
