Queen Mary University of London, alongside PwC and the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW) has launched a new degree in accountancy and joined PwC’s Flying Start Degree Program.

Students will benefit from an “innovative route” into a career in accountancy with paid work placements at PwC, enabling students to earn while they learn at the University.
Students on the Flying Start degree program will also benefit from reduced tuition fees of £7,400 per year, saving almost £7,500 in fees after graduating.

The Flying Start program lasts four years and combines a BSc in accountancy with “hands-on” experience in the workplace. Students will undertake three paid work placements in the second, third and fourth year of their degree.

The three work placements add up to approximately half of the approved technical work experience and 12 of the 15 professional exams required to qualify as a chartered accountant, with most students continuing to build their career with PwC after graduating.

Chief People Officer at PwC, Laura Hinton stated that” We’re thrilled to be working with Queen Mary University to launch our Flying Start Degree Program with them. We’re committed to widening access to our firm and profession, and our Flying Start Degree Program which allows people to earn while they learn, is part of that strategy.

“Queen Mary is known for its fantastic work supporting social mobility so working with them will help us reach students who stand to benefit most. I have no doubt that those accepted onto the Flying Start program will be set up for a hugely promising career in the world of business and accounting.”
The degree program opening for application in September 2022, will have 60 places available.
