Bachelor of Commerce (Accounting)

Our students gain practical work-based industry experience through the Work Integrated Learning (WIL) program, as well as a range of networking opportunities to develop their career portfolio throughout their studies. Students will finesse their professional skills in the areas of leadership, teamwork, critical thinking, communication and problem solving, helping them to succeed in a variety of complex, competitive and dynamic global business environments. The course offers fifteen majors across a broad range of disciplines, all created in consultation with industry and many being professionally accredited and recognised by relevant industry bodies. Students can choose up to two majors, a major and a minor, or a major and a range of electives. The course is structured to provide students with great flexibility in tailoring the degree to suit their individual career aspirations.

Whether students want to work for a large corporation, a new start-up, not-for-profit, or in government, as an accredited major, accounting provides these opportunities both locally and internationally. Students graduate industry-ready and with the skills to work in a diverse range of sectors. The major provides students with a strong foundation in accounting theory and principles, along with practical skills in accounting and related areas. It also develops a student’s capacity for inquiry, abstract logical thinking and critical analysis, as well as communication and interpersonal skills required for success in any industry.
