Career Opportunities

Employability - 80% of graduates found employment within 6 months.

Our MSc in Accounting & Analytics and Postgraduate Diploma in Accounting prepare students for dynamic careers in accounting, finance, and consultancy. Both options equip graduates with expertise in financial reporting, taxation, audit, and financial management, providing a pathway to professional accountancy qualifications. 

The MSc in Accounting & Analytics enhances this foundation with advanced analytical skills, preparing graduates for data-driven roles in financial analytics, risk management, and business intelligence, in addition to traditional accountancy pathways. 

As Ireland’s number 1 business school, employers from all industries aggressively recruit our graduates. Graduates of both programmes secure roles in audit, financial management, tax advisory, investment analysis, and corporate finance across industries such as banking, financial services, consulting, technology, healthcare, and government. Many also pursue professional accountancy qualifications with exemptions from ACCA, Chartered Accountants Ireland, and CIMA. 

For 2025/26, students can choose between the MSc in Accounting & Analytics and the Postgraduate Diploma in Accounting (a shorter, eight-month pathway). From 2026/27 onwards, only the MSc will be available.
