Accounting and Finances

Description

The current economic situation has increased the demand for professionals in the area of finance and accounting. Thus, various studies show that most college graduates perform their work in areas related to the financial sector, advising, consulting and auditing. In our country there was a lack of specific qualifications that addressed all aspects of the Finance and Accounting.
It should be noted that the financial and accounting areas of business are closely related, demanding experts in that field. Finance and Accounting meet the essential defining features of a professional Advisor, Consultant, Chief Financial Officer, Auditor and Financial Analyst.
The new degree also provides a solid and specific starting point for continuing studying as a postgraduate (master and / or doctorate) such as those on Auditing, Banking or Financial Advisor.

Is verifiable the existing strong connection between the Faculty and the business, which has been reflected mainly in the external practices of students, a key factor in the formation of students and their future employability.
The Faculty of Economics is located on the campus of San Amaro, University of Burgos, with an excellent access . It has the necessary infrastructure to enable students to develop their skills in the best conditions. In the surrounding area of the Faculty of Economics and Business the University Central Library, the Central Services Building at the University (Rector and all the Bureaus), the University Dining Hall "Camino de Santiago" and University Sports Complex are located.
