BA Accounting & Finance and Law
About this course
Accounting and finance combined with law is a degree that reflects the inseparability of financial and legal knowledge in modern professional life. Accounting provides the tools to measure, record, and interpret financial performance and to support strategic decision-making. Finance extends that into the world of capital markets, investment, and risk management. Law gives you the doctrinal and analytical training to understand the legal frameworks that govern commercial activity, financial regulation, and corporate behaviour. Together, the three produce a graduate with an unusually complete and commercially valuable education. At Liverpool Hope University, this three-year full-time degree is designed with the realities of professional life in view, giving you a strong strategic outlook and preparing you to contribute to management decisions at a senior level. You will study a range of topics that build solid foundations in both accounting and finance theory and practice, alongside the legal knowledge that every professional operating in the commercial world needs. A sandwich year gives you extended professional experience in an accounting, finance, or legal environment, a year abroad broadens your perspective, and work placement is integrated throughout, connecting your academic development to real professional contexts. The combination of accounting, finance, and law provides one of the most versatile and practically grounded degree combinations available, valued by employers across financial services, professional services, and the legal sector. Graduates go on to careers in accounting, financial management, corporate finance, audit, banking, compliance, corporate law, and commercial management. Many pursue professional qualifications with bodies including ACCA, ICAEW, CIMA, or the SRA, and some continue to postgraduate study in accounting, finance, or law. The breadth of the degree means graduates are well placed across a wide range of professional sectors.
