This plan leads to the award of the Master of Philosophy in Accounting. Research training is a crucial and integral part of the MPhil in Accounting program. This is achieved through the prescription of four specialised courses and is supplemented with courses from other programs as appropriate. Each course comprises a full session of 3-hour workshops and research students should expect to spend at least two days a week on these courses during the first year.

The specialised core courses for the MPhil in Accounting are:

Thesis
After completing the core units research students undertake original research and prepare a research thesis. This must meet high academic standards and be of publishable quality. The thesis will not normally exceed 40,000 words.
