Overview

Why study at the UAO CEU?

1. Become a professional

The aim of the official master's degree in Financial Auditing and Accounting at Abat Oliba - CEU University is to provide practical, specialist training in the field of auditing so that our students can successfully manage or carry out audits of companies of any type or size. We do this by covering a wide range of the important issues relating to auditing and accounting.

2. A standardised course

This is an official master’s degree approved by the Institute of Accounting and Auditing qualifying those who take it for exemption from the theoretical exam; the subjects from which it exempts them is dependent on the subjects students took as part of their previous degree. It allows graduates to enter the Official Registry of Chartered Accountants, and includes work placements that can be counted to meet the practical training requirements to work as a chartered accountant.

3. Supplementary training

The official master’s degree in Financial Auditing and Accounting qualifies graduates to register with the Official Registry of Chartered Accountants (ROAC) and practise as professionals. To do so, the master’s offers all students the opportunity to take supplementary training modules (if necessary) depending on candidates’ previous undergraduate studies.

Students who need to take supplementary credits to meet the requirements of the Institute of Accounting and Auditing may study those credits alongside the master’s at the same time, so that they will meet all the academic requirements for access to the ROAC by the end of the programme.

4. Professional development

The master’s includes 1,000 hour of work placements at prestigious auditing and accounting firms that can be used to meet the practical training requirements to practise as a professional financial auditor. It also includes a job’s board with job offers from more than 2,300 collaborating companies with work placements in over 20 countries.
