The MSc in Accounting is offered by The University of Glamorgan
The executive mode of delivery - which is what this website describes - is offered off-campus near Heathrow airport and is designed purely for holders of one of the professional accounting qualifications (currently ICAEW, CIMA, ACCA, or CIPFA) who receive maximum exemptions from the full Masters programme Students enrolled on the executive mode, off-campus programme are very welcome to visit the campus, and further down this page you can see comments from two recent visitors. Click here to see some video clips from Robin croft - a tutor at the Business School at Glamorgan - some common questions answered If you wish to study the full programme - ie with no exemptions - you can do this at the university's picturesque campus in South Wales. First, here are the main reasons why you should consider enrolling with Glamorgan university:Glamorgan have been rated as one of the top Business Schools for teaching quality. A report by the Times Higher Education Supplement puts Glamorgan up there alongside Warwick and Cranfield and London Business School.....and from the university's website: The Glamorgan Business School is the largest Business School in Wales, 16th largest in the UK and is among only 20 UK Business Schools to have received Excellent ratings from the Government's Teaching Quality Assessment body. The Times Good University Guide 2001 names the School in the top five in the country for Business Studies. The outstanding reputation of our Business School is based on our three consecutive ‘excellent’ ratings in the national assessments of teaching quality, which have contributed to the Daily Telegraph classification of the University of Glamorgan as a ‘first division university’. Recent visits to campus made by students currently on the executive off-campus programme:This transcript is reproduced with permission from Zubin Sethna who sent it to his fellow MSc students on the e-group via which the group maintains its dynamics when not at one of the two executive weekends: Hello everyone Yes that's right, UoG were honoured with a visit from a very special guest yesterday.....unfortunately he must have left before I arrived! (somehow I knew Robin would get in there first with the 'truth' !!) A very fruitful day....I had gone to Cardiff University first to see a contact about ideas to do with my diss.... Then moved onto UoG. (and eventually on to Reading University!) First of all, I have to comment on the tidiness of the place, and especially the office of Mr Robin Croft. A cosy little place with a custom built window overlooking the courtyard with all its hussle and bussle...teeming with young men and women. I was especially pleased to see that the Wooden Love Spoon takes pride of place on Robin's shelf, right next to his other love, Stephen Brown's Post Modern Marketing2 ! A photo of the entire MSc1 group also resides in a silver frame, right next to his monitor...a constant reminder of the fun times had at the first two weekends. Actually, the weather was very kind to us as I received a comprehensive, personal tour of the university. (They have a very professional business centre where upto 500 delegates can be housed...bookings for company events through my good offices please!) Robin, I'll forward your 'cut' onto you. Half way through, and as we were walking down the corridors, we listened out for (and heard!!) the booming, melodic tones of ...... guess who ?!?!....as he lectured on Entrepreneurial Studies. I actually need face-to-face contact every so often, in order to bounce ideas etc....and to this extent, yesterday has been of immense help to me. I have a much clearer understanding of where I am taking my whole diss. I would thoroughly recommend that anyone who has the chance/opportunity to go, does so. If nothing else, at least go and secure your parking space for the graduation next July....finding a space is a nightmare ! We later visited Haydn in his office (a nice corner plot!) where he served us 'Kaffee und Kuchen' (coffee and cake) whilst we discussed the 30 powerpoint slides which have been prepared for Graham's lecturing session next week. So, Robin and Haydn, thank you very much for your hospitality and your kind words of encouragement:-) Cheers, Zubin.
