Accounting and Finance with a Foundation Year

About this course

Accounting and finance underpin every business decision and drive progress across global industries. Accounting provides the systems through which organisations record, report, and make sense of their financial activities, while finance examines how money is raised, invested, and managed to create and protect value. Together they equip graduates with analytical rigour, commercial awareness, and the technical financial knowledge that organisations across every sector depend on. At the University of Kent you will study across four years on a full-time programme, with the first year providing a foundation that prepares you thoroughly for degree-level work in accounting and finance. The foundation year is designed for students who are ready and motivated for higher education but who benefit from an additional preparatory year before engaging with the full academic demands of the degree.
