Bachelor of Accounting - Financial Planning

Western Sydney University

Good accountants understand numbers. Great accountants understand how to think creatively and find solutions. The Bachelor of Accounting holds triple accreditation with CPA (Certified Public Accountant) Australia, Chartered Accountants Australia & New Zealand (CAANZ), and the Institute of Public Accountants (IPA). Depending on your majors, you’ll also be eligible to become a member of the Financial Planning Association or register with the Tax Practitioners Board as a tax agent. The specialised subjects in this major analyse contemporary issues relevant to financial planning using case studies and discussion. Completion of this major meets the RG146 generic knowledge requirements, specialist knowledge requirements and skills requirements as they currently stand. Whilst it is not compulsory to complete the taxation specialisation, students are encouraged to complete these subjects as content builds on that covered in the financial planning specialisation.
