DEPARTMENT OF ACCOUNTING
Welcome to the Department of Accounting, Valley View University. As a department in the leading Christian university in Ghana, we train our students to exercise ethical judgment in the application of accounting knowledge. As a result, we ensure a healthy balance between ethics, mental knowledge, research and practice.
The Department of Accounting accepts students from every background provided they meet the University’s admission requirements. We also accept transfer students who have earned credits above grade C in the relevant courses from other recognized institutions. Holders of Higher National Diploma, Associate Degrees and similar qualifications in Accounting may be accepted as top-up students to earn a BBA degree.
Our graduates are conversant with current trends in Accounting because the course contents are constantly updated to suit the ever changing business environment.
