Programme summary

The MSc in Accounting has been designed in consultation with industry to provide candidates with key skills alongside a robust theoretical understanding of accounting.

Entry requirements

Applicants are required to hold a minimum of a level 8 qualification (minimum 2:2 Honours) or equivalent on the National Qualifications Framework in a non-accounting discipline. Cognate degree holders will also be considered (those presenting with a minimum 2:2 Honours level 8 award). Applications may also be considered under the College’s Recognition of Prior Experiential Learning (RPEL) policy, and this is likely to be particularly germane to the part-time provision of the course. RPEL will be assessed on the learner’s work experience and Continuing Professional Development (CPD).
