Program Overview & Objectives

The Master of Commerce (Professional Accounting) is designed to extend students’ knowledge, values and skills in Commerce-related subject areas which are additional to the ‘core curriculum in accounting and business areas’. As such, it is expected that this course will appeal to students wishing to undertake a more extensive program of study (that is, two years of full-time study or equivalent) than is offered in the 18 month MPA program.

The primary objective of this program is to enable students whose first degree is in a non-accounting field to undertake a professional career in accounting (and/or related fields, such as finance). In particular, it is envisaged that accreditation will be sought to allow graduates of the MPA and the Master of Commerce (Professional Accounting) to obtain membership of a recognised professional accounting association.

Program Structure

The program is 2-year full-time and consists of 16 courses of study. The program structure may be summarised as follows:
