About Accounting Bsc in Durham University

This is a single honours degree in Accounting, with an optional placement year. With maximum professional accreditation, the degree will enable you to graduate as a partly exam-qualified accountant. The degree embeds a strong employability theme and demonstrates clear pathways for you, allowing you to specialise in your final year and also complete an independent piece of research in an area related to your work-experience or an area of special interest.

This degree will be taught on a semesterised basis, with new modules being introduced each term. The degree incorporates a strong employability theme throughout the course in both credit bearing and non-credit bearing activities

Because this is a degree with a strong link to a professional role and a professional career following graduation, the first two years of the degree are made up of compulsory modules, with an opportunity to specialise in chosen areas and develop a research project in Year 3.

The degree has six coherent subject pillars and one theme:

1. Financial accounting and reporting (Years 1, 2 and 3)
2. Management accounting (Years 1, 2 and 3)
3. Information technology (Years 1, 2 and 3)
4. Audit and assurance (Years 2 and 3)
5. Taxation (Years 2 and 3)
6. Research in accounting (Year 3)

• Employability theme (running throughout the degree)

The subject pillars build throughout the degree so that you can identify linkages between modules. The employability theme helps you to understand the link between work done and employability skills gained from both credit and non-credit bearing activities.
