Overview
The Accounting with Spanish programme integrates Accounting with Spanish-language modules taught by the School of Arts, English and Languages.
This degree offers students a competitive advantage by learning skills in the technical application of accounting while developing key oral, aural and written skills in a modern language.
Integral to the Accounting with Spanish programme is the placement year which students complete in a region of the world where the language studied is the dominant tongue. The language modules will advance students’ skills in the language and provide a broad range of specialised and detailed insights into the culture, society and history that go with it, fostering cultural awareness which students will need for their compulsory year abroad, and later, for the world of work.
Global Opportunities
Students will complete a year abroad between year three and year four. This is transformational for their language skills as they enter their final year of study.
In addition, Spanish is the official language of more than 20 countries, with more than 480 million people speaking Spanish as a native language worldwide. With the accounting profession fast evolving, and more businesses going global, employers are continuing to seek multi-lingual accountants. Completion of the year abroad therefore offers students a competitive advantage.
All students get support in securing a placement via the School’s placement office in businesses across Spain and Spanish-speaking countries. We regularly place students with global employers in Barcelona and Madrid. In addition, many topics in teaching on Accounting with Spanish include an international dimension which reflects the globalisation of the accounting profession and financial markets.
Career Prospects
Introduction
Those pursuing a career in Accounting with Spanish should enjoy working with numbers, be effective communicators and work well with people as they will have to analyse and interpret financial information to meet the needs of different users, including managers and investors. Accountants must be prepared to take on challenges and be able to adapt to a constantly changing and dynamic business environment.
Normally the majority of our students become qualified accountants. However, many of the skills that students will acquire during their studies at Queen’s will be of great value in different career and life situations. Core transferable skills include the ability to learn independently, problem solve, understand financial information and work productively as part of a team.
