Accounting and Finance King's College London

Overview

The accounting and finance focus becomes more pronounced in the second and third years of the course, where a number of more advanced modules in financial reporting, management accounting, asset management, auditing and taxation will be offered.

There are two things that are unique about studying Accounting and Finance at King's College London: one is the strong grounding in a broad, social science-based approach to learning; the other is a keen emphasis on the way in which financial careers are being reshaped by technological innovation. This dual focus on social science and technological innovation translates into a concern to cultivate accounting and finance graduates that are socially rounded and technologically adept.
