The Accountancy group is a very active research group that focuses in particular on the broadly defined areas of financial accounting including international accounting, public sector accounting and critical perspectives on management accounting. Accountancy staff also fosters collaborative interdisciplinary and international research which further strengthens its research base. Staff regularly visits universities in Europe, USA and elsewhere as well as hosting visiting staff and seminars. The taught component of these programmes comprise a seminar series and discipline-based courses in research or subject specific courses, as appropriate for the individual student, delivered as part of the Graduate Business School taught programmes. Graduates go into Public and Private Sector Accounting and Management, Fund Management, Stockbroking, Investment Analysis, Banking and Financial Services and Academia.
