This course has really helped to prepare me for going into the ‘working world’. Most of my modules related to the reality of life in the business world. My lecturers had all previously worked in the industry which meant that we had some great links to industry. We would have guest talks and links for work experience placements. For example, my Tax lecturer was able to set up 3 days work experience for me and 2 others at BHP (a local chartered accountants office). It’s made the idea of getting a graduate job a little less daunting!

I learnt basically everything there is to know about accounting: how to balance my time; how to prioritise things such as exam preparation; a lot about the world of business. We did a lot of case study sessions which really helped me understand things in perspective. My placement year massively helped me prepare for the working world and understand what to expect when starting my career properly.
