Why study BA (Hons) Finance and Business at BNU?
Professional accreditations
Our Finance and Business course is recognised by a number of professional bodies, and you can also obtain a number of exemptions when applying for further certification. The course provides an opportunity to gain exemptions from up to 7 modules from the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) papers at the Fundamentals level. In addition, you can also obtain exemptions from up to 8 modules from the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA) and up to 5 from the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW). You will also be able to get exemptions for some of the modules to be eligible to obtain membership with the IFA.
Learn to use industry-standard software
You'll get lots of practical experience using accountancy software, including Sage. In addition to the time spent using these software programmes in class, you'll have 24/7 access to them to practice in your own time.
Taught by experts
Our BA (Hons) Finance and Business degree is led by a dedicated and experienced course team. Benefit from their industry knowledge and the industry links they bring to the course. Many of our guest lecturers are industry-experts and alongside your lecturers, they’ll nurture your learning and professional development.
Choose your specialism
Your first year modules will all be taken alongside students on BSc (Hons) Finance and Accounting, allowing for wider collaboration and networking with your fellow students. Buckinghamshire New University gives you the opportunity to choose your specialism for your future career after your experience of the core curriculum in year one. Rather than having to make your big decision before you join us, you can choose to transfer from BA (Hons) Finance and Business to BSc (Hons) Finance and Accounting after the first year if you wish.
These specialisms are also offered as four-year programmes, including an initial Foundation Year. The Foundation Year will allow you to develop your academic study skills and build confidence in your abilities, identifying your own strengths and development needs for progression onto an undergraduate programme.
Cutting-edge topics
Our curriculum is continuously updated to stay relevant to updates in the finance and business industries. You'll learn about the issues which are driving change, such as blockchain in accounting and the use of AI in accounting. You'll also get to hear from guest speakers from professional bodies on specialist subjects. All of this means you can be confident that you'll graduate ready to step into a role; many of our finance graduates go straight into executive level positions rather than assistant level.
