Undergraduate courses
At the University of Aberdeen Business School, we offer undergraduate courses in Accountancy, Economics, Finance, Management and Real Estate. With a 500 year heritage behind us, we are committed to producing graduates who are critical thinkers, effective communicators and are intellectually flexible, well informed, independent learners. We want the Aberdeen experience to be the best. Founded in 1495, the University of Aberdeen is one of the UK's most internationally distinguished universities with a strong research record. It has a student population of around 16,000 and a large international community of students drawn from 120 different countries.
Accountancy
Studying Accountancy you will develop intellectual skills through analysing and evaluating accounting information, and through critically evaluating the role of accounting information in a modern economy. The majority of our students become chartered accountants, in professional practice, industry, or the public sector, or careers in management, education, or banking and finance.
Economics
Studying economics you will learn how to analyse and evaluate a wide range of contemporary economic problems, and gain analytical skills that are important in a wide variety of careers in business, government, education, or private research and consulting. New Economics graduates are highly employable and gain relatively high earnings compared to other disciplines.
Finance
Studying Finance you will learn about crucial areas such as financial management, corporate finance, personal finance, financial institutions, derivatives and the stock market. You will develop intellectual skills by analysing and evaluating financial problems. Finance students are highly sought after in the private and public sector.
Management
Studying Management you will learn models and theories of managing people and organisations within the context of the external environment. A degree in Management generates opportunities across a wide spectrum of employment possibilities, from large multinational blue-chips to small and medium-sized enterprises in any number of private and public sector industries.
Real Estate
Real Estate at Aberdeen examines real estate markets from the perspectives of economics, investment and business. All real estate programmes prepare students for careers in surveying, commercial real estate, investment, management, valuation and development.
All our undergraduate degrees can be studied on their own or as part of a joint degree with a large number of selected other disciplines in arts and social sciences. Students may also take courses from an even wider range of disciplines as part of enhanced study or sixth century courses.
