Bachelor
This degree is designed to prepare students for the professional fields of finance and accounting, with a strong practical focus and enhanced insight into the global and institutional aspects of financial systems.
Finance is the study of financial institutions, markets and instruments, as well as money, banking, investment and the control of risk.
Accounting involves the financial measurement of economic activity and the use of financial information for making economic decisions. Finance and accounting are closely related and both are integral to industry and commerce.
The degree is structured with applied finance as the core discipline, with accounting and accounting related topics covered in both core and elective units. A specialisation in finance coupled with an accounting qualification will broaden graduate career opportunities and equip graduates with key skills to succeed in a range of professional fields.
