What you study

Students study financial, managerial and cost accounting, auditing, taxation, accounting information systems, finance, economics and business law, professional standards, ethics and financial analysis.

Career paths

Paths include financial accounting, internal and external audit, taxation, cost and management accounting, financial control and reporting, and finance, banking or compliance roles. Statutory audit and certified public-accountancy practice require additional examinations, experience and licensing.

Common misconceptions

Accounting is not merely arithmetic or data entry; it requires understanding standards, controls, professional judgement and business analysis.
A bachelor's degree in accounting does not automatically confer certified public-accountant status.
