Course in depth
What this course covers, who it suits and where it leads.
What you'll study
This degree combines accounting fundamentals with modern financial analytics to prepare you for contemporary challenges in business finance. You'll usually begin with financial accounting, introductory finance and quantitative methods for business analysis. In year two, you'll progress to management accounting, corporate finance, and financial reporting under IFRS standards. Year three opens specialist pathways such as audit and assurance, taxation, corporate finance, financial risk, fintech, or professional-body exemptions, alongside an independent dissertation or applied project. The curriculum builds progressively from core principles to specialist depth, grounding you in both traditional accountancy and data-driven analytical skills needed in today's financial sector.
Who it's for
You're suited to this course if you're analytical and interested in how organisations use financial data to make strategic decisions. You'll work well if you're comfortable with detail yet see the bigger picture, and if you want practical knowledge alongside theoretical grounding. The part-time format suits those balancing study with work or other commitments. You should be prepared for technical content, accounting principles, analytics, research methodology, and willing to apply these to real business problems. If you're aiming for a career in accountancy, financial analysis or business strategy, this programme offers the professional grounding and accreditations to support that path.

International students
What applying to University of Greenwich from outside the UK involves: fees, English, visa, funding and living costs.
Tuition fees
International tuition is £17,975 / year for this course (from the provider’s fee page). 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 University of Greenwich’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 University of Greenwich and gov.uk before you apply.
