| Location: | North Terrace Campus |
| Duration: | 2 years
(full-time or
part-time equivalent)
|
| Degree/Award: | Masters by Coursework |
The Master of Accounting and Performance Management provides comprehensive studies across the related fields of accounting and performance management. It is designed to meet the needs of entrants from either a relevant degree seeking in-depth advancement in their field and an associated field, or a non-relevant degree seeking to comprehensively adapt to the new fields of accounting and performance management.
While the program includes study in both fields, students choose to specialise in one area. For students choosing the Accounting specialisation as their primary discipline, the program aims to develop them for a professional accounting career with accreditation to proceed to the professional programs of CPA Australia. For students choosing the advanced Performance Management specialisation, the program aims to equip them with a sound knowledge of managing organisational performance in its multiple dimensions. Graduates will be eligible for membership of the Australian Institute of Management (AIM) and the Australian Human Resource Institute (AHRI).
Students complete core courses which include four foundation courses, five management courses and five accounting courses. The remaining two courses will be either performance management or accounting courses, depending on the student's main specialisation.
