In the past students on the BA (Hons) Accounting course have participated in overseas field trips.

1991 EU Institutions

In 1991 second year students visited EU institutions in Strasbourg, Luxembourg and Brussels as part of a project on the Single Market.

1992 Berlin

In 1992 students visited Berlin for a week to gain first hand experience of the consequences of German reunification.

1992 Poland

Also in 1992 three senior students accompanied the programme leader to Poland to help deliver a financial modelling course at the University of Lodz and were able to visit Warsaw and Krakow.

1993 Poland

In 1993 a group of first and second year students visited Poland to study the problems associated with the transformation of the former Eastern European command economies to market economies. The group visited the University of Lodz and the Warsaw School of Economics for lectures by senior academics and joined their fellow Polish students for a number of social events.

1993 Catterick

Also in 1993 some forty first year students were the guests of the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards at Catterick Camp for three days in February. The students participated in a series of games, events and experiences designed to enhance their interpersonal and leadership skills.

There have been no field trips since 1993 - mainly due to the lack of travel subsidies from the Business School.
