Overview

On the Professional Accounting program at Monash University you’ll cover many aspects of business, financial and management accounting. After an advanced preparatory component, you’ll cover mastery units and two application studies too – with topics like data analytics, forensic accounting, governance, sustainability, and valuation – all available to tailor your study to your career ambitions.

By the time you’ve finished your study, you’ll have gained professional accreditation, be more capable of navigating the ins and outs of modern professional accounting – and more skilled at putting the latest business thinking into practice.

Careers and opportunities

You don’t need to have a background in accounting to make it a part of your future career path.

This two-year program will give you a deeper understanding of the key concepts, tools and practices that reflect current business accounting – so you’ll be more than capable of making the discipline part of your own career.

Accreditation

Studying this course will also qualify you for associate membership with leading accounting institutions and industry bodies – including CPA Australia, the Institute of Public Accountants, and entry into the Chartered Accountant’s Program of the Institute of Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand.
