What ACCA studies at SANS offer

The ACCA qualification is one of the most prestigious professional credentials in finance and accounting. SANS integrates it into the finance and accounting specialization taught entirely in English. This rare approach in the Pomeranian region ensures that students gain familiarity with global terminology and can operate confidently in an international environment.

The programme provides the possibility to complete nine ACCA modules during studies. SANS is one of just 11 institutions in Poland offering this option at the master’s level. Graduates may also apply for the Advanced Diploma in Accounting and Business after passing additional modules and an online ethics exam.

Who the programme is designed for

The studies are aimed at people who want to build careers in finance, audit, accounting, or taxation. The curriculum is also relevant for those who wish to learn modern management principles, risk management, strategic planning, or business law. Candidates should have at least a B2 level of English to participate effectively in classes and exams.

Career opportunities after graduation

Graduates of the finance and accounting ACCA specialization work in a variety of roles, such as accountants, financial controllers, auditors, finance business partners, tax managers, or chief financial officers. Some choose to open their own businesses. Because ACCA is recognized in 181 countries, the diploma offers opportunities both in Poland and abroad, including in the European Union, North and South America, Asia, and Australia.

Accredited programme and international dimension

The study programme and exams are accredited by ACCA Poland, meaning that exams passed at SANS can count directly toward the ACCA qualification. Courses are conducted by experienced practitioners, including accountants, auditors, tax advisors, economists, and financial analysts. Students also benefit from practical classes, workshops, and projects, often organized in cooperation with employers.

SANS maintains close ties with the business community in the Tri-City region, enabling students to take part in internships and placements in international companies. The Employer Council operating at the university supports students and graduates in entering the job market.

Forms of study

The finance and accounting ACCA specialization is available as a master’s programme or as postgraduate studies. Both options are taught in English and allow students to complete the accredited ACCA modules.

Admission deadline

Recruitment for finance and accounting ACCA at SANS is open until 30 September. With the deadline approaching, this is the final chance to apply and begin studies that combine an academic diploma with a qualification recognized in the global finance and accounting profession.
