OUR PROGRAMMES
We train our graduates with academic rigour, market intelligence and strong ethical principles. The training they obtained at the Department will enable them to be the next generation of market leaders.
OUR FOCUS
To produce graduates who are ethical and competent accounting professionals who are leaders in multi-disciplinary and diverse teams.
Building adaptable industry leaders
With increased adoption of technology, accounting firms now face new demands to recruit employees who possess data analytics skills combined with accounting knowledge. We aspire to be innovative and continuously improve our accounting curriculum with emphasis on accounting training for our students, who will be equipped with the necessary skills, network and knowledge to transform data into actionable insights.
Exploring new possibilities
Students will either rise as a more finance-savvy executive in the same organisation or branch out to a new role not previously thought possible, like an auditor, a data analyst, an equity analyst, an M&A advisor or even an entrepreneur — the list goes on without boundaries. Their multi-disciplinary skills and high ethical standards will contribute hugely to the success of their accounting organisations.
