Professional Recognitions

HKICPA Approved Accountancy Programme

The degree programme BCom (Hons) in Accounting and Banking is accredited by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (HKICPA) as an approved accountancy programme under the Institute's Qualification Programme (QP).

Professional Bodies

A distinct feature of our programme is the integration of the knowledge of professional accounting and banking, which is unique in Hong Kong.

Understanding that accounting, banking and finance are disciplines closely related to one another, therefore, an accounting programme should be appropriately complemented by a mix of knowledge in other fields of expertise such as finance, IT or management. We incorporate accounting and banking knowledge into the programme as we strongly believe that in this way, our graduates can better serve the business sector in Hong Kong, a financial centre of Asia.

The programme is also specifically designed for our graduates to gain recognition from various professional bodies. Full or partial subject-exemptions have been granted for application to the membership of:

• Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (HKICPA) - fully recognized and accredited
