BSc Accounting and Finance

Accounting and finance is the study of how money moves through organisations and how that information guides decisions. This degree programme at SD Dombo University of Business and Integrated Development Studies prepares students for a wide range of roles in business, banking, and the public sector.

What accounting and finance covers

Programmes of this kind usually teach you how to record and report financial transactions, prepare financial statements, and analyse the financial health of a business. You also study taxation, auditing, corporate finance, and how financial markets work. The degree builds strong numerical and problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and the ability to explain complex financial information clearly.

How hard it is to get a place

Entry to this programme is less competitive than many other business degrees. The same programme is also less competitive at Accra Technical University, Koforidua Technical University, and the University of Professional Studies. This means that if you meet the basic WASSCE requirements for a degree in business, you have a good chance of being admitted here, depending on your grades.

What graduates do after university

Most graduates go into roles such as accountancy, auditing, tax advisory, financial analysis, or management accounting. Many work in accounting firms, banks, insurance companies, government agencies, or the finance departments of large organisations. The qualification is also a strong foundation for professional certification, such as ACCA or ICAG, and for starting your own business.
