What stood out was the practical nature of my degree. I found it straightforward to apply my knowledge quickly and easily, when working in industry. I could translate things I’d learned at UWE Bristol straight into my workplace and was able to make an immediate impact. Daniel BA(Hons) Accounting and Finance Trainee Tax Adviser, Ernst & Young
