Forensic accounting and the related discipline of forensic audit are fast developing areas in the commercial world. The major professional accounting firms now have departments offering forensic accounting and audit services, and the demand for expertise in this area is growing exponentially. As a result, there is a growing need for people with specialist skills who can undertake fraud investigations, valuations and related forensic activities in various fields of business.

This MSc Forensic Audit and Accounting award will enhance your critical, analytical and appraisal skills when handling business data from a forensic perspective. These skills, coupled with your previous qualifications in business studies, accounting or audit, will make you a highly desirable candidate. If you already have a recognised professional accounting qualification, eg, membership of ACCA, CIMA or ICAEW, you may be entitled to exemptions from significant parts of the programme.
