Accounting and Management

About

Combine two key areas of business – and prepare for a successful future career – with our BA Accounting and Management degree.

The University of Reading's Henley Business School is ranked 19th in the UK for Accounting and Finance (Complete University Guide, 2022).

This multidisciplinary degree equips you with the fundamental concepts of the accounting disciplines, together with in-depth understanding of business management. You'll examine a range of issues from this dual perspective, exploring the interrelationships between both professions with an international emphasis.

Professionally accredited

Certain modules on this degree are accredited with professional bodies, including:

the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW)
the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA)
the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA)
the Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM).

This means you may be able to apply course credit towards professional accountancy exams in the future.

Multidisciplinary programme

The accountancy element of this course will cover topics such as:

financial reporting
management accounting
business finance.

You'll also explore the broader subject of management through:

marketing
organisational behaviour
strategy
information systems
human resource management
entrepreneurship
ethics.

Building on the commercial and academic knowledge you'll have acquired during your first year, a range of optional modules in your second and final years will allow you to tailor your degree to your areas of interest.

Our teaching and assessment approach

Henley Business School's undergraduate degrees are taught through a mix of lectures, group projects and interactive classroom lessons, giving you the opportunity to discuss, explore and then apply the subject content in depth with both lecturers and fellow students. Through exploring and tackling real-world challenges, you will also develop key critical thinking and problem-solving abilities.

Thanks to a varied range of assessment methods – including written assignments, in-class tests, group presentations and formal examinations – you'll graduate as a well-rounded individual with transferable skills that are highly sought after by leading graduate employers.

Additionally, you could also put your knowledge and skills to the test into a real working environment and apply for a one-year industry placement between your second and final years of study.
