Accounting, Auditing and Taхatiοn

The master's degree program "Accounting, Auditing and Taxation" is a consecutive full-time degree program with four semesters of regular study time. A reinforced, scientifically founded education in a profession-related partial area of business administration with strong shares in business and tax-law elements and principles is planned.

The studies are structured as follows:

• Accounting, Auditing, and Governance (2 modules).
• Taxation (2 modules).
• Law (1 Module).
• A required area (5 modules).
• 2 seminars and a subject-specific master thesis.

The lectures are held in English or German. The corresponding examinations are conducted in the same language as the lecture.

The central target of the degree program is training future auditors, tax and corporate consultants, and other professions related to accounting, auditing, and taxation, such as internal revisors, controllers, finance, and rating analysts. The focused and highly qualified training is ensured by the interdisciplinary alignment of contents from the areas of accounting, auditing, business administration taxes, business and tax law, Corporate Governance, and controlling. It is to enable students to, in particular, acquire skills in the execution of legally required audits and knowledge and skills that enable them to meet their role as generalists and to solve interdisciplinary issues from the professional work of an auditor, tax or corporate consultant, in the scope of their education.

The alignment of the master's degree program with the University of Siegen is set up so that the students will be taught about the mutual dependencies of business administration decisions and tax situation designs under consideration of the legal framework conditions in the scope of their training.
