About Program

Program Overview

MSc. Accounting & Finance

The MSc Accounting and Finance programme is a specialist programme designed to develop professional accountants and non-professionals in two 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 students to obtain full exemptions from the ICAG (Institute of Chartered Accountants Ghana) exams up to the professional level. It also prepares students to complete the ICAG final level papers.
