What can I do with my Accounting degree?
Next year I will graduate with a degree in Accounting but I really do not like my course and was wondering what else I could get into? I really don't want to be an accountant or a banker. I usually score higher in my IT modules but do not know how I would go about pursuing that. Would just like some ideas about anything else I could do?? Im soo confused right now, any help appreciated!

Answer 1 :
do you live in Uk, i know the BA hons with accounting degree includes business administration etc. if thats the case you could go in to systems analysis. The Open University used to do a degree in systems processes, which could lead you into IT... programing, analyst work.... Best bet is to give your Uni's career advice department a call and they can advise you what options are available to you.
Answer 2 :
Do you want to do a job involving numbers? Or any job, as long it's not accounting? With your finance degree, you can work in a bank's MI section (Management Information) they deal with statistics, compiling financial data from various sources, and turning it into pretty pictures and spreadsheets (barcharts and piecharts). If you have only a year left, finish your accounting degree. It will look great on your CV, and it will open a lot of doors for you, even if you don't actually need to use it.
