University of London and ACCA jointly launch BSc degree in Professional Accountancy

The University of London and the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) have taken a major step further in providing education to Indian students internationally. They have launched a new combined BSc in Applied Accounting course. This new course enables students to earn an internationally recognised degree and study towards a professional ACCA qualification simultaneously.

The step is an extension of the current partnership between the two institutions. Under



the partnership, ACCA members and affiliates already enjoyed the privilege of gaining access to an MSc in Professional Accountancy.

With this step, the partnership aims to give students a simpler and more convenient way of gaining global accounting and finance qualifications.

In India, increasingly students have been opting for the ACCA qualification over the past few years, particularly commerce and accountancy students who seek international exposure.
