SHAPING THE FUTURE OF ACCOUNTING AND FINANCE

SAF is unique: as part of Canada’s most innovative University, we share the conviction that experience matters — that students need opportunities to apply knowledge in real-world environments.

This philosophy led us to integrate co-operative education into all of our programming before any other accounting or business school. Refusing to stand still, we then introduced real-world problem solving to courses and extra-curricular activities — all while conducting cutting-edge research to help the accounting and finance professions lead change.
