Master in Accounting and Finance MSc

At University of Westminster, tuition fees are 24,569 USD per year.

The programme runs over one academic year and is divided into two semesters. In each semester you complete a set of core modules and choose one optional module, building from foundational accounting and finance concepts to advanced specialisms, before completing a Capstone Project in the final months.

Week-by-week you attend lectures and seminars, undertake Bloomberg Financial Markets Suite and Excel training, and engage in workshops that develop analytical and research skills. You conduct literature reviews, work on data-driven case studies, and progressively develop a dissertation or work-based project under faculty supervision.

Unique to this course are professional accreditations that grant ACCA and CIMA exam exemptions, extensive use of a Bloomberg virtual trading room, and the option to undertake an internship module, giving practical exposure to top accounting firms.
