Abstract

The main objective of the course is to provide students with an opportunity to develop a solid technical and critical understanding of different tools and approaches of management accounting in dealing with total quality management, continuous improvement, social and environmental issues, investment decision-making and the risks associated with such decisions. The course aims to develop the competencies necessary planning, controlling, and adopting strategic thinking for achieving organizational goals, outcomes, and competitive advantages. Although the course pays considerable attention to numerical aspects, including different examples of reports companies might use in practice, the key emphasis is on considering non-financial information and qualitative factors in different managerial decisions. Taking strategic management accounting beyond numbers, this course provides an opportunity to apply skills and knowledge in a final project that will enable students to develop their ability to critically evaluate, interpret and discuss strategic management accounting issues. This course reinforces the importance of an ethical and professional approach to environmental and digital sustainability, which is useful from an employability perspective.
