The Business Accounting Society will serve as a platform for students, professionals, and enthusiasts to connect, learn, and grow within the field of accounting. Its primary purpose is to foster a community where likeminded individuals can share knowledge, explore career opportunities, and stay updated on industry trends.
As a society, we aim to form as a long-term support network for students of all years on the BSc Business Accounting degree so that knowledge and experience can be passed down along the year groups. As this is a very demanding degree, having this society in place will allow its members to interact and assist each other in formal but also social settings. We hope it will also allow its members to stay connected during their times across the country in their various PwC Offices allowing everyone to develop meaningful connections with their peers.
