Master's Programme in Accounting is organized by the School of Business.

Accounting is at the heart of every business and a critical part of planning and decision-making for sustainable business. Reliable and relevant information – for financial, management, and sustainability accounting purposes – is increasingly important as decision-makers often become overwhelmed by masses of data, dubious sources of knowledge and misleading pieces of information. Our programme prepares students for producing, analyzing, interpreting, and communicating financial, non-financial and sustainability-related information to control and manage organizations operating in the modern highly digitalized environment.
