Students will be exposed to the application of theory to a range of organisation types including private sector business organisations, not-for-profit organisations and public organisations. Through experiential learning techniques students will develop knowledge and competencies to conduct independent research, carry out industry and discipline related projects, and relate their learning to authentic accounting problems and issues encountered by organisations.

  • apply technical accounting skills to process transactions and construct accounts for a variety of organisations, including sole traders, partnerships and companies

  • critically analyse diverse business scenarios by applying market analysis and accounting information system concepts and auditing principles and processes
  • critically appraise the impact of fiscally responsible and sustainable compliance with legal, regulatory and governance obligations as it relates to accounting and marketing practices
