Accountancy

The Bachelor of Commerce (Accountancy) offers advanced accountancy topics including financial reporting, auditing and management accounting. You will learn about financial accounting in its organisational, social and political contexts as well as study relevant law subjects (including taxation law and law of business organisations) so as to be eligible for associate membership of professional accounting bodies. Students seeking professional accreditation must consult with the Program Co-ordinator early in their studies. This is especially important for those doing double majors and double degrees.
