Here's what University of Lincoln says about its Accountancy and Finance course.

Lincoln’s Accountancy and Finance degree aims to equip students with a vocationally relevant and academically rigorous education in a programme which also offers the opportunity for exemptions from elements of examination for a number of the professional accountancy bodies.
