You must note, however, that while care has been taken to ensure that this information is up to date and correct, a change of circumstances since publication may cause the School to change, suspend or withdraw a course or programme of study, or change the fees that apply to it. The School will always notify the affected parties as early as practicably possible and propose any viable and relevant alternative options. Note that the School will neither be liable for information that after publication becomes inaccurate or irrelevant, nor for changing, suspending or withdrawing a course or programme of study due to events outside of its control, which includes but is not limited to a lack of demand for a course or programme of study, industrial action, fire, flood or other environmental or physical damage to premises.
You must also note that places are limited on some courses and/or subject to specific entry requirements. The School cannot therefore guarantee you a place. Please note that changes to programmes and courses can sometimes occur after you have accepted your offer of a place. These changes are normally made in light of developments in the discipline or path-breaking research, or on the basis of student feedback. Changes can take the form of altered course content, teaching formats or assessment modes. Any such changes are intended to enhance the student learning experience. You should visit the School’s Calendar , or contact the relevant academic department, for information on the availability and/or content of courses and programmes of study. Certain substantive changes will be listed on the updated graduate course and programme information page.
Supervision.
Successful applicants will be assigned two supervisors, a principal and secondary supervisor at the start of the programme.
During the MRes period you will have the opportunity to meet and discuss your research interests with a range of faculty members to help ensure you have the right fit with your supervisors for your PhD. This is designed to expose you to various faculty members within the academic group on a rotation basis and also to provide a more integrated experience where you will have the chance to develop your ideas with junior faculty.
Because of the close relationship between the supervisor and their subject area, you will be able to develop a solid intellectual relationship with an experienced researcher who is directly engaged with, and interested in, your research progress. The direction and guidance you are given occurs through frequent student/supervisor meetings and reviews, as well as discussions of relevant academic issues during seminar presentations by faculty and visiting academics.
Throughout your PhD, progression is monitored via bi-annual progress reviews by the departmental Research Student Assessment Review Committee. The Committee meets each year in January to assess your mid-year progress and in June to assess your end-of-year progress and make decisions on continued registration/de-registration.
During your second year of your PhD, you will undergo a ‘mid-term review’. As part of the mid-term review, you have to submit a solid draft of one complete core chapter, a less developed draft of one further core chapter, as well as a detailed outline for the rest of the PhD thesis with a timeline for completion. You will be provided with an opportunity to defend your submitted written materials orally. The materials will be reviewed by a Departmental Review Committee which will consist of the supervisory team and one internal reviewer drawn from the Department, who has not been involved in your supervision. You need to pass the ‘mid-term review’ to progress to the third year of your PhD studies.
Your final award will be determined by the completion of an original research thesis and a viva oral examination.

Nadine de gannes (2018, ivey business school).
The PhD journey for me was one of discovery. Personally, I unearthed the depths of my work ethic and perseverance. In focusing intently upon a particular area of study and questioning what was known and puzzling over what remained unknown, I discovered the types of questions I wanted to ask, and how I wanted to go about finding the answers. Both methodology and methods training are central pillars in doctoral research, and the Department of Accounting enabled these in spades. I was never left wanting for opportunities to enhance skills that were critical to the successful completion of my thesis. There was also no shortage of outstanding academics to challenge and inspire critical thinking and discussion. The PhD was not an easy road, but undoubtedly one that I believe was worthwhile.
Take a look at the department webpages for further student stories .

This sector guide will provide you with information on what a career in accountancy and financial management looks like, what organisations and roles you could work in, and how to get there. you will also find information about job sites, useful resources, industry events, and advice on how to network with alumni in the sector., back to all employment sectors: browse information about another sector., what is a career in accountancy and financial management.
Accountancy and financial management are integral to the business world, and involve the recording, reporting and analysis of financial transactions. The sector includes audit and advisory work, taxation, business consulting, and management accounting. Technological innovation, the rise of cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology, climate change, and issues concerning social responsibility, accountability and justice are impacting the sector, creating new opportunities and challenges for those in financial management.
You will usually work towards chartered status or qualification from one of the sector’s professional bodies. In the UK, there are six accountancy bodies, covering different locations and types of practice. The Financial Reporting Council provides a useful oversight of the accountancy profession , with links to each one.
Where can i work.
There are many different roles in the sector. We’ve outlined those that are often of interest to LSE students with links to further information. If you can, try to talk to someone who’s doing the job you’re interested in, so you can get a real flavour of what it’s like. In the next section, under ‘resources’, you can find more information on job sites, job search resources, and how to network with alumni in the sector. Accountancy and audit
Roles in tax are often a mixture of law, administration, and accountancy, drawing on a range of intellectual, presentational, and personal skills.
You may also find some of the roles in our Careers in financial services and Careers in consultancy pages interesting.
A common route in is through a graduate scheme, usually open for applications from September to December in your final year of study – but the smaller the firm, the later the deadline. Graduate programmes typically involve working towards professional membership. Smaller firms may look to recruit entry-level positions on an ad-hoc basis.
Jobs in tax or accounting require training towards professional accreditation worldwide, so graduate and trainee programmes that allow you to obtain this are common entry points in the UK.
Evidence of experience is important when applying for graduate positions. Many firms run summer vacation internship programmes with application deadlines usually falling in February and March, sometimes sooner. Don’t neglect the smaller or niche firms which may give you greater responsibility more quickly. You may have to apply on a speculative basis with a CV and covering letter.
Initial graduate and trainee positions can progress into finance and consulting roles, or the financial foundations gained can provide a means for transition into ‘non-finance’ roles, for example, in project management, operations, and strategy.
If you’ve worked for a number of years in a related position, it is likely that experienced hire roles would be more suitable than graduate schemes. For career changers, relevant experience is important. If you don't have that experience, it may be possible to develop your skills in a voluntary capacity, eg, with a charity.
