Accountancy

Interpreting information for better business decisions
Company decisions, such as how many employees to hire, how many products to make and so on, require financial information. Financial consultants interpret information, enabling resource allocation decisions that are necessary to taking decisions and meeting targets. Auditors, on the other hand, check the reliability of that information.

International appeal
International accounting principles are exactly that: international. This means you can take your qualification with you wherever you go, allowing you to work across the globe. The department of Accounting and Information Management has also undertaken research for the EU as well as top Dutch and other European auditing firms. You will benefit from the best in international research.

Accountancy is available as a 1-year, full-time programme or a 2-year, part-time programme. Courses are taught entirely in English. Graduates will receive a master's degree in International Business with a specialisation in Accountancy.
