Accounting and Financial Management

These undergraduate programmes are accredited by both CIMA (Chartered Institute of Management Accountants) and ACCA (Association of Chartered Certified Accountants). Graduates on these programmes that wish to take either the CIMA Chartered Management Accounting Qualification or ACCA Qualification upon graduation will automatically receive a significant number of exemptions from both accounting bodies. Depending on the specific modules chosen, graduates can be exempt from all five of the examinations required for the CIMA Certificate in Business Accounting, from three of the nine examinations (those at the operational level) required for the CIMA Chartered Management Accounting Qualification, and from six of the nine Fundamental level examinations for the ACCA qualification. More information on these qualifications and the exemptions offered for our undergraduate programmes can be found on the following websites:

• CIMA
• ACCA
