What is the scope of Accounting education in Australia?

by Arpita Shah Seo Executive

Australia is a country which has an education index of 0.993, the highest in the world. In 1996, Australia signed the convention against discrimination against education to fight against the racial segregation in education. It was instrumental in making the quality of education high and for all. Australia is now the third most favoured destination in the world for overseas education.

When it comes to choosing a preferred course, accounting remains near the top of the wishlist. Accounting is defined as the measurement, processing and communication of financial information about economic entities such as businesses and corporations. Accounting gets categorised into following categories-

  • Financial accounting
  • Management accounting
  • Auditing
  • Accounting information systems
  • Tax accounting
  • And others

The competition in getting a job in accounting is high. Often, getting a bachelor or master degree is not enough to get a response from employers. The employers demand work experience and professional skills from candidates.

But, a degree in accounting is necessary to fulfil the requirements for membership to professional accounting bodies in Australia. It is a mandatory requirement for accounting professionals to work in the niche industry.

So, the question is which city in Australia is famous for the accounting courses?

Accounting courses in Brisbane are renowned worldwide for the quality and acceptance. Some of the accounting courses which are available in Queensland/Brisbane-

  • B Financial Planning/b Accounting - Central Queensland University
  • Bachelor of Accounting and Sustainable business- University of Southern Queensland
  • M Professional Accounting- Central Queensland University
  • Master of Accounting- Bond University

Accounting graduates willing to get jobs in the Australia market must enrol in the Professional Year in Accounting. It is called Skilled Migration Internship Program – Accounting (SMIPA) and designed to improve the career prospects of international graduates after graduating from the Australian universities.

The price of the course varies from $6000 to $13000 and duration is 44 weeks.
