DCU’s Accounting and Finance course creates solutions-orientated accountants and financial services professionals with both Irish and international perspectives.
The course takes you from an introduction to accounting basics, through to more complex theoretical and practical accounting studies. You’ll also explore a myriad of other topics, including issues concerning business, law, IT, taxation, auditing, professional ethics, economics, corporate finance, investments, psychology, marketing, HR, management, and communications.
You may also opt to study one of three European languages (French or German or Spanish) as part of the course, giving you an added appeal to employers.
A considerable demand continues to exist for accountants, financial managers, and tax and management consultants.
You will be professionally equipped for such careers. In terms of employers you can choose from professional accountancy practices, industry, financial services and the public service, nationally and internationally.
