Master's Programme in Accounting

This site contains the student study guide for the Master’s Programme in Accounting. Here you will find the programme curriculum as well as detailed guidelines for planning your studies. All the materials and instructions are for the students in the programme. If you are interested in applying to the programme, follow the link at the bottom of the site to the application page.

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.
