The course has two specialisations: (i) Auditing and Analytics and (ii) Cybersecurity. The Auditing and Analytics specialisation focuses on financial data quality, security, interpretation and visualisation using modern analytic tools, while the Cybersecurity specialisation develops advanced programming skills through specific data security and analytics programming languages, including study of data security within artificial intelligence, machine learning and blockchain contexts.
Yes, students can change specialisation and will be credited for the units completed in the new specialisation. However, units completed outside the structure of the specialisation cannot be counted toward the new specialisation. Students should note that the first term is shared across both specialisations and provides an opportunity to transfer after one term to the other specialisation, receiving full credit for units completed.
To complete the Bachelor of Accounting and Data Assurance, students must complete 144 credit points representing 24 units of study. All units are weighted at six credit points.
The Auditing and Analytics specialisation contains a sequence of accounting units that meet CPA Australia and Chartered Accountants ANZ accreditation requirements. The relevant units are marked with the hash symbol (#). Students are responsible for ensuring that all units required by CPAA and/or CAANZ are included in their program of study if progression to the CPA Program or CAANZ Program is planned.
Further and more specialised learning is available in postgraduate courses, including the MBA (Business Analytics), MBA (Digital Business Applications), MBA (FinTech Management), and Master of Applied Financial Technology and Blockchain.

Honestly I was lost when I first started looking at Australian colleges. There are just too many options and every agent gives you different info. A friend told me about FindTheCourses and within a week I had shortlisted 3 programs that actually matched my budget and visa situation. My advisor Sanjay was super helpful — never felt like I was being pushed into anything.
