The Bachelor of Science in Accounting with Specialisation in Professional Accountancy programme and the Bachelor of Science in Accounting with Specialisation in Accounting and Information Systems programme, both offered by the University of Macau’s (UM) Faculty of Business Administration, have been accredited by the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA). Students of the two programmes admitted from the 2013/2014 academic year onwards are eligible for exemption from all or part of the papers at the Fundamentals level of the ACCA Qualification, provided that the corresponding courses are completed. Graduates of the two programmes are eligible to claim exemptions from nine papers (Paper F1 – F9) and eight papers (Paper F1 – F5 and F7 – F9) at the Fundamentals level, respectively. They can then work towards completing their ACCA Qualification by passing the remaining examinations, together with three years of practical experience and the Professional Ethics module. The title of ‘Fellow’ will be awarded to those who complete the continuing professional development (CPD) and have been an ACCA member for five years.
