UCAS code: N400

Here's what Queen Mary University of London says about its Accounting and Finance course.

Are you determined to succeed in the world of corporate finance?

Driven to succeed in the world of corporate finance? There’s no better place to study this subject than in London. The financial district is only 15 minutes away from campus and you’ll benefit from our partnerships with leading organisations like PwC, one of the big 4 consultancy firms.  

You don’t even have to leave campus. You’ll have access to Wharton Research Data Services (WRDS), specialist econometrics software and industry-standard datasets including Bloomberg and Eikon. Everything you need to polish your skills in analysis and data handling is right here. 

The importance of ethical practice 

The School of Business and Management value transparency and ethical accounting practices, integrity and accountability. These values are reflected in our research.  

As the gender gap in accountancy is becoming a hot topic, our teaching staff are bringing awareness and bridging the gender gap within these professions. Others are investigating new accounting phenomena and political issues. 

With the increasing complexity of financial markets and the integration of technology, graduates in this field are in high demand. Follow in the footsteps of our past students who now work at EY, CBRE, Deloitte, and more. 

The School of Business and Management has strong links with professional accountancy bodies the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) and Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA). This course is accredited by ACCA. BSc Accounting and Finance students will be eligible to acquire exemptions to certain ACCA and CIMA exams by applying to the relevant professional body upon graduating.
