Course in depth
What this course covers, who it suits and where it leads.
What you'll study
This course combines core business management and accounting subjects, progressing from foundational financial and quantitative skills to advanced professional specialisations. You'll usually start with financial accounting, introduction to finance, and quantitative methods for business. In the second year, you'll typically move to management accounting, corporate finance, and financial reporting under international standards. From year three onwards, a course like this normally offers specialist options, such as audit and assurance, taxation, corporate finance, financial risk, and fintech, culminating in an advanced corporate reporting module and a dissertation or applied project. Many students complete work aligned with professional-body exemptions, building directly towards chartered accounting qualifications.
Who it's for
You're suited to this course if you're comfortable with quantitative reasoning and curious about how organisations manage money and resources. You should enjoy both analytical problem-solving and understanding people and strategy. This degree appeals to those who want practical, employment-focused study and are willing to engage seriously with both theoretical foundations and real-world case work. The full-time, three-year format works best if you can commit to structured, campus-based learning.

International students
What applying to Tec Partnership from outside the UK involves: fees, English, visa, funding and living costs.
Tuition fees
International tuition is set per course by Tec Partnership; international fees are typically £12,000–£30,000/year for classroom subjects and higher for lab/clinical ones. You’re not eligible for UK Tuition Fee or Maintenance Loans, so plan for fees plus living costs upfront.
English language
Most UK undergraduate courses ask for around IELTS 6.0–6.5 (no band below 5.5–6.0), or an accepted equivalent. If you’re just short, most universities run a pre-sessional English course that counts towards the requirement.
Student visa
You’ll usually need a Student visa (Student Route). After you accept an offer the university issues a CAS; you then show funds for fees plus about £1,023–£1,334/month living costs and pay the Immigration Health Surcharge for NHS access.
Scholarships & funding
Many universities offer international/global scholarships (often £2,000–£6,000/yr), check Tec Partnership’s funding pages.
Living costs
Budget roughly £1,100–£1,400/month outside London and £1,400–£1,800/month in London for rent, food and travel; the figure also matters for your visa.
Working while you study
A Student visa usually allows up to 20 hours/week in term time and full-time in holidays, useful alongside study, though not something to rely on for fees.
Visa rules and fees change. Always confirm the current requirements with Tec Partnership and gov.uk before you apply.
