Master of Professional Accounting (Advanced)
Murdoch University, Perth, WA, Australia
About this program
Accounting underpins decision-making, planning, and performance evaluation across every industry. This two-year advanced master's program covers accounting processes and business finance, with students working in project teams alongside peers and industry partners to apply accounting theory to real-world problems. Accounting is one of the business fields most directly connected to Australian skilled migration, though the pathway depends on the specific degree carrying accreditation from CPA Australia or Chartered Accountants ANZ and graduates completing a formal skills assessment; students should confirm current accreditation status for this program before relying on it for migration planning. This course is delivered by Murdoch University in Western Australia.
