Accounting provides students with a sound basis for progression to careers in accounting or with an accounting bias, as well as for careers in general management; it also affords a good preparation for professional accounting qualifications; accounting as a major subject provides subject exemptions from the examinations of 2 of the UK professional bodies: the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) and the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA); tourism affords students a balanced view of tourism as a business in addition to equipping students with essential graduate skills; it provides an understanding of the impacts that tourism has economically, socially and environmentally on both a domestic and international scale; the programme is supported by a wide range of extra curricula activities, from guest speakers from various tourism bodies and organisations, to residential field trips in the UK, Europe and Africa.
