The Master of Professional Accounting offers you the opportunity to develop the knowledge and expertise you need for a rewarding career in accounting starting with associate membership of professional accountancy bodies. You will undertake advanced learning in both theory and professional practice and learn to solve accounting and business problems in innovative ways.

The degree meets the requirements for professional accounting accreditation with the Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand (CAANZ) and CPA Australia. The program offers graduates with a recognised bachelor's qualification in any field the opportunity to develop knowledge, understanding and expertise in the field of professional accountancy.

The program's foundation exposes students to the broad organisational, regulatory and market context in which accountants operate. Students then pursue advanced learning in accounting within the contexts of both professional practice and the theoretical paradigms that underpin such practice.
