📘 Program Overview

The Bachelor of Accounting (Honours) (CPA Australia) is a four-year programme developed in close collaboration with CPA Australia. It is structured so that students complete three years of academic study at UniRazak, followed by the final Level 6 papers of the CPA Australia qualification.
