Course Overview
Program designed for students whose first degree is in a non-accounting
field and provides you with a comprehensive program of study in
accounting theory and practice that is recognised by both CPA Australia
and Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand, enabling you to
pursue a pathway to qualification as a professional accountant.
The Master of Professional Accounting provides an accelerated pathway
to a career in accounting for graduates who have already proven their
capacity for scholarship by having earned a bachelor’s degree or
equivalent in any discipline. The program equips graduates to articulate
and advise on resource allocation issues within different organisational
contexts and to prepare financial statements that satisfy user needs and
comply with regulatory requirements. The program covers foundation
knowledge of the double-entry accounting system, accounting information
systems, and the legal framework within which business operates. It
also addresses more advanced issues related to corporate governance,
audit, cost and management accounting, internal controls, accounting for
corporate groups, and contemporary issues in financial reporting. A range
of non-accounting electives in disciplines such as Marketing and Human
Resource Management are incorporated within the Program in order to
provide a broader perspective.
The program places a strong emphasis on ensuring that accounting
practice is carried out against a framework of ethical behaviour, social
responsibility, and sustainability as detailed in the United Nations PRME
(Principles for Responsible Management Education) initiative. Through
carrying out a range of practical and theoretical assignments, both
individually and in groups, graduates will be equipped with the knowledge,
skills and breadth of perspective to capably and confidently fulfil the role
of a professional accountant.
