As Singapore is already such a major business and financial centre and looks set to enjoying further growth in this sector, you would definitely want a piece of the action too. Especially if you enjoy crunching figures and have been intrigued by how the profit and loss statements are produced.

This course emphasises analytical and business skills needed for careers in management accounting and corporate finance. As managers are becoming more responsible for managing their own profit centres, it is therefore essential for them to possess a similar level of financial understanding as accountants do within the business. 

In this context, the course provides students a background in both the theoretical and the practical aspects of accounting fundamentals and financial principles of the 21st century.
At the end of this course, students will be able to:

• Understand the theory behind and practice of specific financial and management accounting areas
• Apply specific management accounting and financial skills to increase the productivity and efficiency of their business operations
• Assume higher levels of responsibility within these functional management areas as a result of newly acquired / improved skills
