The Department was established in 1984 to prepare undergraduate students for professional accountancy and company secretaryship. This original purpose has since been augmented with a substantial research endeavour and postgraduate programmes. By forging close links with the accountancy profession and business community in Hong Kong and the Chinese mainland, the Department has attuned its mission in accounting education and research to the requirements of the marketplace. Its educational expertise embraces the primary fields of professional accountancy — financial accounting, management accounting, auditing, taxation and financial management — as well as the field of company secretarial practice. Special attention is given to the international dimensions of accounting, auditing and taxation including relevant issues on the mainland, as well as inter-disciplinary dimensions between accounting and other specialisations including finance, corporate governance and management information systems.
