Program Overview & Objectives
The Master of Professional Accounting (MPA) program may be completed in three semesters of full-time study and provides a comprehensive sequence of study in accounting, as well as introducing students to related subject areas such as business law, financial management, economics and quantitative methods for business.
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 granted to allow graduates of the MPA and the Master of Commerce (Professional Accounting) to obtain membership of recognised professional accounting association.
