This is a Middlesex University programme and qualification, designed, assessed and quality assured by Middlesex but delivered at and by a partner.

The BSc (Hons) Business Accounting with Foundation Year offers an accessible route into an accountancy-based degree programme at the same time as offering significant professional exemption on graduation. The programme offers you the opportunity to gain both a solid grounding in accountancy at the same time as being able to gain additional understanding of other business functions.

The Foundation Year is designed to be a launchpad for assisting your further studies and to boost your knowledge and skills, so you are up-to-speed and ready to meet the challenges of the main degree (Year Two - Year Four). This year is also ideal for those who have perhaps been out of study for a while or need to gain more confidence in their own abilities.
