If you’re planning a career in accountancy or the financial sector, studying at the University of Stirling is the perfect starting point. Our course boasts 5-star teaching and multiple industry accreditation.

An accounting degree empowers you to prepare, present and interpret financial information for a wide range of organisations, and the skills you learn will enable investors, lenders, management and others to make key decisions based on financial facts.
