        Why study at the UAO CEU?

        1. Professionalization

        The International Master’s in Auditing and Accounting provides advanced, specialised, multidisciplinary training in Auditing and Accounting, with a distinctly professional focus. It also delves into European regulations and the main international frameworks, reinforcing practical training in finance and taxation within the European context.

        2. Teaching staff

        The course is taught jointly by lecturers from the Auditing School of the Association of Chartered Accountants of Catalonia and from the CEU Abat Oliba University itself.

        3. Employability

        The average work placement rate for CEU postgraduate studies is 95%.

        4. Human Resources

        The International Master’s in Auditing and Accounting is a non-research-oriented but professional course that aims to prepare students for a very specific professional practice. This is one of the main reasons—and one of the most valued—why part of the teaching staff must have an extensive professional profile. This multidisciplinary training, which is specific to a degree like this, results in graduates with broad skills and competencies within the academic field of the degree and the profession. The overall aim is to train students to know how to apply current state and European regulations, both from a theoretical point of view and from the practical exercise of the profession.
        Administrative staff from the CEU UAO and the Association of Chartered Accountants of Catalonia who work together with student information management, enrolment processes and advising on any doubts students may have about this degree.

        5. Specific spaces and material resources

        The master’s face-to-face teaching activities are mainly carried out in the Auditing School of the Association of Chartered Accountants of Catalonia under the terms agreed between CEU UAO and the professional association itself. The available spaces allow for activities with the entire group of students, as well as activities with divided groups, taking into account the resources of both the CEU Abat Oliba University and the Association of Chartered Accountants of Catalonia.

        Graduates interested in auditing.

        Graduates in need of professional reorientation.

         

        OBJECTIVES

        The aim of the program is for students to acquire advanced specialized multidisciplinary training oriented towards specialized professional activity in auditing accounts in accordance with the provisions set out in Royal Decree 861/2010. The design of the training program is the overall result of coherently combining various essential complementary elements specifically conceived to achieve the objectives/skills that students must attain, these being understood as the set of knowledge (know-how), skills (specific know-how) and attitudes (common know-how or how to be), as well as the capacity to mobilize and integrate all of this in order to adequately perform their functions and activities.

        General objectives

        The general objective of this Master's Degree in Sustainability Audit is to provide students with knowledge of different areas, subjects and tasks that converge in the field of auditing in order to facilitate their professional activity. This objective is consistent with those of the Abat Oliba CEU University, as it aims to reinforce specific skills in the field of accounting and especially in account auditing.

        The professional orientation of the Master's is in line with its critical, participative nature, typical of business decisions and the obligation and benefit of companies to be audited, and also with the principles of the University in that it aims to promote leadership in decision making based on in-depth knowledge of accounting and the development of skills to identify, diagnose and solve problems based on a critical spirit and the capacity for discernment provided by accounting knowledge to interpret company information.

        At the end of this Master's, students will have acquired the knowledge and skills that society and organizations require of accounting and auditing professionals. In other words, they will have solid training in auditing tools and practices.

        In order to achieve this objective, the main elements that make up the curricular design of the training program (i.e. its subjects and training activities, as well as the teaching and evaluation methods) have been oriented to this end. Finally, it should be made clear that this Master's is oriented at professionals.

         

        Specific objectives

        • To understand in sufficient depth the accounting regulation applicable to businesses, both nationally and internationally, especially with regard to interpretation and practical application.
        • To know the procedures and protocol for auditing accounts and the development and application of the Audit Law.
        • To be able to express an opinion on the financial and economic status of a company based primarily on accounting information.
        • To be able to carry out the activity of an auditor, making intensive use of advanced quantitative and computer techniques that enable complex decisions to be taken in an optimal, informed manner.
        • To be able to develop the necessary skills to be able to cultivate a professional career in auditing and accounting.
        • To be able to rise to the new challenges posed by new rules in auditing and accounting regulation within the financial environment in which the entity is immersed at all times.
        • To become a professional, entrepreneurial, reflective person sensitive to diversity and aware of their professional and personal responsibility towards society and the economy.
