Interested in accounting and professional skills beyond your primary discipline?

A Second Major or Minor in Accountancy provides a foundation in the language of business, helping students understand how organizations measure performance, communicate value, and make informed decisions in an increasingly complex business environment.
 
As organizations place greater emphasis on accountability, sustainability, and long-term value creation, accounting professionals play increasingly important roles in strategic decision-making, governance, and stakeholder communication. Through the study of accounting and business, students develop knowledge and skills relevant across a wide range of business functions and industries.
 
Students may also wish to learn more about the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (HKICPA), the statutory body responsible for the professional training and development of Certified Public Accountants (CPAs) in Hong Kong. The Accountancy curriculum includes courses recognized by the HKICPA for the Qualification Programme (QP) and the Certificate in Accounting and Business (CAB), offering students opportunities to develop accounting, business, and professional skills valued across a wide range of career.
 
Whether you are looking to broaden your knowledge, complement your primary discipline, or explore future opportunities, discover how accounting education can enrich your learning journey and support your future development.
