Bachelor of Business (Accounting)

If you’re thinking of joining the growing league of financially astute business leaders who make up the $20 billion accounting industry in Australia, studying a business degree with an accounting focus will put you in a strong position to succeed in any industry, anywhere in the world.

Being good with numbers is only part of the equation; accountants also need to be able to interpret financial data to help inform business decisions, communicate their findings clearly and effectively and often become one of the key business stakeholders.

As the accounting profession adapts to evolving expectations, it is crucial to balance your specialist business and accounting technical skills with professional skills, to enable you to make an impact in a range of complex, global environments.

The Bachelor of Business (Accounting) degree provides an accounting specialisation in a broader business context. The degree has also been accredited by professional accounting bodies Charted Accountants Australia and New Zealand (CA ANZ), CPA Australia and by ACCA, the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, providing a solid endorsement of quality.
