About

At Surrey Business School we inspire positive change in business and society, individuals and organisations, locally and globally by delivering impactful research and courses which promote a global and digital mindset for the future of business.

There's growing demand from businesses around the world for qualified accounting and finance professionals.

Our BSc (Hons) Accounting and Finance course is designed to match the requirements of the UK's accounting bodies. This allows you to take significant steps towards becoming a qualified accountant, as well as developing skills essential for all kinds of business careers.

Our award-winning Professional Training placements prepare students for roles in industry. We deliver on jobs, too. We were named University of the Year for Graduate Employment in The Times/Sunday Times Good University Guide 2022.

You'll explore the core elements of accounting and finance in detail, through modules on financial accounting, management accounting, auditing, taxation, corporate finance and financial risk.

Our BSc (Hons) Accounting and Finance course also delves into various aspects of business operations - from the challenges of managing people, processes and customers, to the way organisations operate within a global political, legal and social environment.

This blend of specific accounting and finance modules, with a wider understanding of business, gives you both a strong theoretical foundation in the subject and an appreciation of how accounting and finance theory is applied in business practice.
