Finally, the Bachelor of Accounting degree provides scope for the development of critical thinking and problem solving skills whilst also emphasising the importance of corporate responsibility, ethics and governance.
The Bachelor of Accounting provides its graduates with the skills, knowledge and attributes required by accountants to perform effectively in modern business environments. The degree is designed in accordance with the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) and the requirements of relevant professional associations. At the core of the Bachelor of Accounting degree are units that provide the financial accounting, management accounting and auditing skills necessary to obtain professional accreditation and employment in the discipline of accountancy. In modern business environments, accountants need to interact with professionals from a range of functional areas. Hence, the Bachelor of Accounting degree also provides education and
/ There are six generic outcomes for all graduates of the Bachelor of Accounting: ¡ Perform financial accounting processes that record, measure and report the transactions and performance of an organisation in a manner that complies with applicable accounting standards ¡ Perform management accounting processes that record, measure and report the effectiveness and efficiency of the organisation, its performance and position in a manner useful for managerial decision making ¡ Analyse accounting information to evaluate the extent of compliance with applicable accounting standards ¡ Analyse accounting information to evaluate cost and efficiency, performance and value creation, and the achievement of strategic objectives ¡ Communicate effectively with other management professionals and business stakeholders synthesising issues in accounting and finance, operations, marketing, people and organisations as well as broader issues in corporate responsibility, ethics and governance ¡ Identify the broader social, legal, economic and business context within which accounting operates â&#x20AC;˘8â&#x20AC;˘

Vocational abilities that students must be able to demonstrate by the end of the course fall into the following areas: ¡ have in depth knowledge of accounting processes, encompassing financial accounting, management accounting and auditing ¡ integrate accounting information into a broader legal, commercial and business context ¡ leverage their technical expertise to think critically and solve business and commercial problems ¡ communicate with other business professionals in non-accounting disciplines of management ¡ provide advice to management based on sound accounting and financial analysis on how to enhance organisational efficiency and effectiveness ¡ act responsibly and ethically
The Bachelor of Accounting course has as its core an accounting body of knowledge that is complemented by business law, economics and finance, as well as broad-based management bodies of knowledge. This structure is designed to provide the education and skills required by current and future accountants who will need to interact with other professionals in business. In addition, the course has four electives. This provides flexibility for students to pursue advanced learning outcomes in general management disciplines of their choice (subject to availability). The table overleaf provides a listing of unit codes and titles that comprise the Bachelor of Accounting course. Approved electives are listed directly below the Table.

" ( " 6 /& 79;<=X" /34 The Bachelor of Business is designed to provide a broad general education relating to business management, which brings together the sub-disciplines of accounting and finance, operations, people and organisations and marketing and strategy. While the introductory units are each dedicated to one of these areas and collectively provide a balance of specialised treatments, the higher level units tend to provide a more integrated treatment of all areas in each unit. Some of the higher level units are generic to management, including those dealing with strategy and governance. Others develop a theme based approach considering issues around globalisation and the internationalisation of business.
These studies are designed to produce graduates who have effective and industry relevant knowledge and skills and who demonstrate capabilities for leadership in the business area. To achieve this aim the Bachelor of Business requires graduates to demonstrate both educational and professional outcomes.
/ There are six general outcomes for all graduates of the Bachelor of Business: ¡ Think strategically, using a range of tools and models that have been identified within the academic and professional literature ¡ Develop plans which form a synthesis of accounting and finance, operations, marketing, people and organisational issues and capabilities ¡ Communicate persuasively across cultures and across the boundaries of the sub disciplines within the management sphere ¡ Optimise the efficiency and effectiveness of the organisation ¡ Manage risk and exploit opportunities that arise from the core competencies and positioning of the organisation ¡ Apply these capabilities across a range of organisations that might be encountered in a typical career and adapt knowledge of management and leadership to new problems and opportunities as yet unforseen
â&#x20AC;˘ 12 â&#x20AC;˘
and generate effective, acceptable change in the problem situation in a wide variety of contexts; and Innovate through creative thinking in the commercial context
Professional abilities that students must be able to demonstrate by the end of the course fall into seven areas: 1. Have in-depth knowledge of one or more fields
路 Responsible Awareness: continuously reflect upon and critically assess their actions, appreciate the impact of those actions and recognise the legal, ethical, and social justice issues affected by their actions
2. Be equipped for life-long learning and motivated to continue to learn and develop professionally 3. The ability to effectively communicate, both orally and in writing, with a diverse range of audiences
Graduates of the Bachelor of Business will qualify to pursue a career in public, private or non-government sector management or as management consultants.
4. Are able to liaise, cooperate, and work effectively with others 5. Are able to conduct thorough, accurate, and targeted research, and in particular be able to access information through a variety of communication channels, comprehend, critically assess and integrate information from a wide variety of sources
The Bachelor of Business degree has two broad dimensions. The first dimension provides a broad general education in management by balancing units from the four areas that are generally considered to constitute the core of management: i.e. Accounting and Finance, Operations, Marketing and Strategy, and Organisational and Human Resource Studies. The second dimension operates at the higher levels and provides a more integrated treatment of the basic topic areas, either around generic management themes of strategy and governance or around themes of globalisation and the internationalisation of business activity. These themes have had a profound influence on the way in which business is done. The table overleaf provides a listing of unit codes and titles that comprise the Bachelor of Business. Approved electives are listed directly below the Table.
6. The ability to understand and identify ethical problems and demonstrate ethical behaviour 7. Have business leadership potential shown through: 路 Good Communication: the ability to effectively adapt communication techniques and strategies to a diverse variety of businesses and interpersonal contexts 路 The ability to work independently and in collaborative relationships: Operate effectively in supervised and self-directed modes as an individual, and similarly work effectively as a team member and/or team leader, in a wide variety of contexts; and Facilitate the empowerment of others to fulfil their potential in their environment. 路 Effective problem-solving and creative thinking: Identify problem situations, choose appropriate problem-solving approaches, 13

When fees are paid or related issues have been resolved, the student will be included on the class list if there is space available. In order to be added to the class list and allowed in the class, evidence must be obtained from Student Services. This is to be taken to the lecturer of the class to be added to the class roll and attendance taken. When students register late, the lecturer will assist as much as possible, but if students cannot catch-up they may fail the unit in which case, the student will pay to repeat the unit.
