Course Information

ABOUT THE PROGRAMME

A Murdoch Double Major Degree in Accounting and Criminology delivers an extensive programme, offering a variety of subjects such as “Management Accounting” and “Policing and Crime Prevention” among others.

Being fundamental to business, accounting knowledge can prove useful against financial crimes such as money laundering and fraud through units such as “Company Law”. In addition, the programme is accredited and recognised by numerous accounting institutions such as the ACCA and the Institute of Public Accountants (IPA) respectively.

Criminology is an analysis-driven field which delves into the inner workings of the criminal psyche. It makes heavy use of negotiation and problem-solving skills just like Accounting.

Students with Murdoch University-recognised Kaplan Diplomas or relevant Private Diplomas or Polytechnic Diplomas will be given up to 8-module exemptions and gain entry to Year 2 of the programme. As students can gain entry direct to Year 2 of the programme, they can complete the programme in 20 months instead of 28 months.

Students will attend a combination of lectures, tutorials and workshops in this programme. Students have the flexibility to plan their study schedule based on their own study load. Programmes are scheduled for 5 days a week, 3 hours a day. Student are expected to be on campus for classes, workshops and self-study. Each unit is supported with 24 contact hours. The Dean from Murdoch University is based in Singapore to oversee all academic aspects and ensure a high standard of academic delivery here.
