Program details

Overview

The master's examines how technological innovation and sustainable practice are reshaping the information that organisations provide to internal and external stakeholders, including the changing role played by auditors and controllers in society as that role shifts, and how businesses weave sustainability principles into strategy, financial practice and their information systems. Students learn to design information systems that produce this kind of information and to judge the quality of systems already in place, building the competence to operate in an ever-changing financial landscape shaped by new regulation, technology, sustainable practice and financial instruments. This prepares graduates to audit financial data for multinational companies, ensure compliance with shifting national and international rules, or steer the financial sustainability of environmentally conscious organisations, with a choice of three profiles: Accountancy, Controlling, or Sustainability Management and Controlling.
