BSc Accounting and Finance
About this course
Accounting and finance is one of the most directly career-relevant degree combinations available, addressing the two core financial disciplines that underpin every commercial and public sector organisation. Accounting provides the systematic frameworks for recording, reporting, and analysing financial information, and it underpins everything from auditing company accounts to managing budgets and ensuring regulatory compliance. Finance examines how capital is raised and deployed, how investment decisions are made, and how financial risk is measured and managed. Together, they develop graduates who understand both the historical record and the forward-looking analysis that financial management demands. Arden University's Accounting and Finance programme is offered via blended learning, combining timetabled classes at a study centre with online independent study through the university's digital learning platform. This model gives you the structure of regular face-to-face contact while offering the flexibility of online resources, making the degree accessible to students who need to balance study with work or other commitments. Each week you will have timetabled classes alongside significant independent study, supported by digital library access, journal databases, eBooks, and all course materials. A typical entry tariff of 56 points reflects Arden's commitment to widening access to professional education, and the blended learning model is particularly well suited to students who benefit from flexible study options. Graduates from accounting and finance programmes pursue careers in accounting practice, financial management, banking, auditing, corporate finance, and public sector finance roles. Many also pursue professional accounting qualifications with bodies including ACCA, CIMA, or ICAEW, using the degree as a foundation for further professional development.
