MSc. Accounting & Finance

The MSc Accounting and Finance programme is a specialist programme designed to develop professional accountants and non-professionals in two (2) strategic roles. The programme is a management training programme that equips professional accountants with the skills needed for managerial functions and broadens the theoretical account knowledge of non-business graduates and professionals who have diverted into accountancy. One key advantage attached to this programme is that it enables you to obtain full exemptions from the ICAG (Institute of Chartered Accountants Ghana) exams up to the professional level. It also prepares you to complete the ICAG final level papers. For more information about the programme and course content, kindly download the programme brochure.
