Management and Accounting - B6053

Management and Accounting

Master's degree/Master's degree

The most effective business leaders draw on the power of relevant, insightful information to make decisions that positively impact people and their environments. This double degree is your opportunity to sharpen your expertise – in both the accounting principles that lead to those decisions and the management skills that lead an organisation forward.

MAKE YOUR NEXT MOVE

As part of this two-year program, you’ll build on the critical skills you’re already developing in accounting, research, data analysis and more. Advancing your understanding of specialist fields like accounting information systems and financial accounting, forensic accounting, auditing and management accounting – and how they can positively influence business decision-making.

Having a similarly advanced knowledge of contemporary management theory and practice will be essential for making a positive impact. You’ll be challenged to uncover innovative solutions to complex management problems – considering how businesses can operate more sustainably and shape a culture that prioritises people over profit. In doing so, you’ll be more equipped to lead teams within your own arm of an organisation – and across a broader organisation too.

ELEVATE YOUR EXPERTISE

You’ll complete your double degree with a more specialised level of accounting expertise ready to draw on this crucial business discipline in the most up-to-date and innovative ways and drive meaningful, sustainable change in organisations.

With a precise lens for data and information and stronger leadership and interpersonal skills, this double degree could be your next step towards a career that makes a positive difference for people, for business – and for you.
