Accounting And Finance in Manchester Metropolitan University

Overview

Whether you’re an aspiring chief financial officer or want to start your own accountancy firm you need a good understanding of accountancy, financial practice and commercial business. This course covers all these areas as well as developing your management skills. It’s the ideal start to a career in accountancy or finance.

We designed the course to cover the same content as many of the chartered accountancy exams. That means you’ll be exempt from a lot of professional bodies’ exams. After graduation, you could be well on your way to being a qualified professional in a shorter space of time.
