Modules at each university will broadly be the same, and cover topics such as bookkeeping, statistics and credit and financial analytics. Year 1 will introduce you to key financial and economic practice, laying the foundations to all future study. Year 2 will continue to develop your understanding of corporate finance, while also introducing optional modules you may wish to focus on. Year 3 will see you focus on a year long project, often in the form of a dissertation.
Accounting degrees at UK universities generally last for four-years (including placement option) and will provide a solid foundation for either further study, or progression into your desired postgraduate accounting course or auditing profession.
Students will develop accounting knowledge and skills and undertake special ACCA-accredited (Association of Chartered Certified Accountants) modules, meaning you will be exempt from a select number of ACCA professional exams if you choose to work towards your full accountancy qualification.
A postgraduate qualification in accountancy will help boost your career prospects with specialist and advanced modules in financial reporting, corporate governance and data analysis. Many accounting courses at masters level also feature accelerated progression to CIMA (Chartered Institute of Management Accountants), meaning you will be exempt from up to 11 CIMA certificate exams.

I sincerely thank SI-UK for getting me accepted to UCL. The MSc in Urban Development and Planning is extremely competitive, but the right guidance provided by SI-UK made my dream of studying at University College London a reality. The services were exceptional from beginning to end.
