The accounting function provides timely, relevant and accurate information to the management of a business. This information is also used to assess the financial ‘health’ of a business and to make plans for the future. Accountants are involved in making many decisions necessary for the efficient operation of a business. Therefore, a well-run accounting function is critically important to the long-term management of a business. This four-year honours degree programme offers advanced specialist education in accounting, providing a firm base for either further academic study, a career in business or the pursuit of a professional qualification with one of the accountancy bodies. MTU offers accounting students the benefit of small class sizes initially which assists with a smoother transition from second level. MTU accounting lecturers have professional qualifications and relevant industry experience. Show less
