University of London + ACCA Masters in Professional accountancy

nyvrem · May 31, 2015

Not sure if this was shared here before, but UoL and ACCA just teamed up this year to offer a MSc in Professional Accountancy. Entry into the program is by passing some of the earlier ACCA papers. So you don't need a first degree for admission.

Accountancy students will be at the forefront of ground-breaking change by studying for the world’s first integrated Masters degree programme with the University of London at the same time as taking their professional qualification with the ACCA (Association of Chartered Certified Accountants).

Taking both qualifications at the same time has been made possible through a unique partnership between the University of London and ACCA, which is the first truly integrated Masters programme with an accountancy body at professional level. Both organisations subscribe to the access agenda and operate in 180 countries across the globe.

The design of the Masters degree in Professional Accountancy has been customised with two pathways for both ACCA students and its Members/Affiliates, wishing to get ahead in their career.

For current students, the first three essential ACCA professional papers will be credited by the University of London for its Masters degree and at this point they become eligible to register for the degree with the University. In order to successfully pass the Masters degree, students will be required to complete two professional modules, which offer synergy between the University of London and the ACCA examination papers, as well as completing a strategic financial project.

ACCA Members and Affiliates, who will have already completed their ACCA professional qualification, will also be eligible to register for the Masters programme. They will be required to complete two modules, namely global issues for the finance professional and a strategic financial project, to complete the award.

The Vice-Chancellor of the University of London, Professor Sir Adrian Smith FRS described the partnership between the University and ACCA as ‘ground-breaking for the benefit of students all over the world’.

This is the admissions page. If I'm reading it correctly, the whole program would cost about $9000 USD.

I have no idea how ACCA or this degree is viewed in the US, but I thought I just share this out.
