Accounting and management control are undergoing change as swiftly and as profoundly as finance. Organisational and strategic issues linked to business models are new topics in accounting that must be addressed and companies are making radical changes to their accounting and performance steering systems. The MSc in Accounting and Control is designed to provide students with knowledge of both operational and strategic accounting and control. The programme responds to today's need for financial controllers capable of managing reporting procedures and implementing innovative financial and management accounting solutions. It also develops additional skills such as communication, strategy, project management and human capital management.
The core modules are based on an EDHEC survey of financial directors and controllers on the skills required of the current and future holders of these positions. Close ties with professional associations are a guarantee that the programme contents respond to strategic corporate needs. The ultimate goal is to provide students with the financial and accounting background to support CFOs, CEOs, or other departments involved in decision-making.
Career opportunities
The MSc in Management Control prepares students for a great variety of international careers such as financial controllers and financial auditors in the manufacturing or service sector or in the financial industry. These positions will offer good prospects for advancement to such careers as financial director or business unit director.
Our graduates are working for multinationals as well as for small and medium-sized companies with international interests. These jobs are undergoing constant changes. For example, the role of the financial director is more and more strategic to the company: as the chief executive's copilot, he or she comes up with the dashboards that will increase the efficiency of the company. Students may work in the manufacturing sector or in the service or financial industries.
