Bachelor of Accountancy
Singapore Management University (School of Accountancy)
Course Overview
The SMU Bachelor of Accountancy is the top-ranked accountancy degree in Singapore and consistently ranks in the global top 5 for accounting research (UTD list). For Sri Lankan school-leavers, it's a direct path to the Big Four (PwC, Deloitte, EY, KPMG) and to regional finance roles — SMU School of Accountancy alone places ~85% of its cohort into accounting and finance internships across all four years.
Curriculum is 4 years including a mandatory internship and overseas exchange. Students can stack a second major (Finance, Analytics, Strategic Management) without extending the degree, and qualify for direct entry into the Singapore Chartered Accountant (SCA) Qualification after graduation — the local equivalent of CA Sri Lanka but with international recognition.
