This programme is designed to offer a comprehensive scheme of academic study, which advances students’ ability to apply a range of banking and finance skills to practical situations. The programme modules are designed on the basis of the latest requirements of Accounting and Finance, familiar by the work of professional accountancy bodies including the AAT, ACCA and CIMA. The main subject groupings are Financial and Managerial Accounting, Finance and Economics, Audit and Professional Ethics, and Accounting Information Systems and Business Law. In these subject offerings, there is a natural progression from Year I to Year II. Year I provides an essential introduction to the subject grouping and equips students with the preliminary practical and intellectual skills necessary for progression to Year II, which progressively builds on to what has been introduced earlier.
