BSc Accounting and Management
About this course
Accounting and management are two disciplines that address complementary aspects of how organisations function: accounting is concerned with the measurement, recording, and communication of financial information, while management addresses the broader questions of how organisations are led, structured, and directed. Combining the two gives you a rounded understanding of business that is genuinely useful whether you go on to specialise in finance and accounting or to pursue general management roles where financial literacy is essential. At the University of Bath, this three-year full-time programme has been designed specifically for students who want the credibility of specialised accounting knowledge alongside the breadth of management understanding. Bath's School of Management is one of the most highly regarded business schools in the UK, and the programme reflects the school's emphasis on combining intellectual rigour with practical relevance. You will study the technical foundations of financial and management accounting, corporate finance, and reporting, alongside core management subjects including organisational behaviour, strategy, marketing, and operations. The programme carries a typical entry tariff of 168 points, reflecting the strength of the students it attracts and the demands of the curriculum. The Bath programme is designed to give you a competitive edge when you enter the job market, combining the analytical precision that accounting demands with the strategic and interpersonal skills that management roles require. You will develop the capacity to read and interpret financial information, to understand how that information informs decision-making, and to communicate effectively with both financial specialists and non-specialists. Graduates go on to careers in accounting, finance, consultancy, investment banking, and general management across a wide range of sectors. Many pursue professional accounting qualifications after graduation, while others move directly into management training schemes or financial roles in industry and the public sector. Postgraduate study in accounting, finance, or business is equally accessible.
