PwC - Accounting Flying Start Degree Programme - London

Financial and Professional Services

During the programme, you’ll have three paid work placements. In each university’s academic year, one term will be on placement, so you’ll still have the summer off to enjoy. The programme will put you on track to becoming an ICAEW Chartered Accountant and you’ll complete 80% of your ICAEW exams on the degree. You will be just over a year away from the full qualification once you graduate.

Course Overview

  • Fast-track your career in accounting and start on the path to becoming an ICAEW Chartered Accountant.

  • This programme is a collaboration between Queen Mary University of London, the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW) and 'Big Four' accounting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC).

  • A series of paid work placements is built into the course, meaning you will have the opportunity to apply the technical theory you learn in the classroom directly to the workplace.

  • Learn accounting skills from academic specialists who are experts in their field.

  • Work on real projects for real clients as part of PwC's assurance team, and receive technical training during your paid placements.

Financial Package

  • Paid work placements with a competitive salary.

  • Sourced and paid for accommodation where needed for each work placement period when you are required in your allocated office.

  • Some of the universities offer reduced tuition fees during your degree.

  • Many of the learning materials are provided free of charge.

  • ICAEW registration fee

How to apply

You apply for the Flying Start degree via UCAS. You can apply for multiple Flying Start programmes but each application to each university will count as one of your UCAS options.

As each university is unique, they all have their own admissions policy to consider applications. For the specific admissions requirements please visit the relevant university pages.
