The Master of Professional Accounting (MPA) is for graduates who have a degree in a discipline other than accounting. Students gain an appreciation of the theory underpinning accounting, as well as relevant legal and practical issues..
The MPA is recognised by CPA Australia and the Institute of Chartered Accountants (ICAA). Students who plan to obtain membership of these organisations, must apply directly to CPA and ICAA for recognition of their previous undergraduate studies. Students should initiate this process before commencing their studies at UOW.
The MPA has been approved by DEEWR as an eligible Masters program for Student Income Support. For information regarding eligibility contact Centrelink on 132 490.

The School of Accounting and Finance is regarded as one of the top institutions for alternative research frameworks and application of information technology to learning and teaching. Alternative research frameworks examine accounting in its broader political, economic and social framework. Such research goes beyond the traditional technical focus of accounting and finance.
The programs are diverse, providing an opportunity to acquire an in-depth specialist knowledge in selected commercial, public sector and academic areas, including banking, finance and accounting.
With over 120 academic staff members and 30 support staff, Commerce is the University's largest Faculty and aims to be the best environment to research and learn commerce.
Staff use innovative, student-centred teaching styles and a range of methods, including face-to-face teaching, interactive group work and flexible delivery to enhance the learning experience.
The Faculty's coursework and research programs are closely linked to industry and community needs and also reflect an international perspective so essential in this increasingly smaller world. Students and staff from around the world create a lively multicultural community.
Postgraduate students can access large well-equipped computer laboratories to support laboratory-based and hands-on components of subjects across the Faculty. |
