Edinburgh Napier University's Accounting and Finance subject guide helps you decide which degree fits your goals. You might be a new student, planning a career change, or a postgraduate applicant - each topic answers a specific question: what accounting and finance degrees cover, which career paths they lead to, and how they compare against each other and against professional qualifications.
Edinburgh Napier's Accounting and Finance programmes carry accreditation from five professional bodies: ACCA, CIMA, CIPFA, ICAS, and ICAEW. Accreditation from these bodies can give you exam exemptions, cutting the time and cost of reaching Chartered status.
Choosing between an accounting degree, a finance degree, or a professional qualification route is not straightforward. This guide covers 10 topics to support that decision for anyone considering Accounting and Finance at Edinburgh Napier University.
