About this program
Bond University's Master of Accounting is a 16-month conversion degree (four semesters, 13 subjects) for graduates without an accounting background who want a professional accounting qualification. The sequence runs from accounting principles, economics, and finance through management accounting, financial accounting and company reporting, business law, taxation, auditing, and data analytics for accountants.
It is accredited by both CPA Australia and Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand, so it satisfies the academic requirement for those professional programs. Students with a cognate undergraduate degree can receive up to 40 credit points of advanced standing, shortening the degree. Accredited by AACSB and EQUIS.
