The department of Accounting and Finance sits within the School of Business at Zambia’s second largest public university – The Copperbelt University. Since its inception, the department of Accounting and Finance has been offering industry recognised undergraduate programmes in accounting, auditing, and finance. The department is exemplarily recognised as one of the major contributors to the accounting profession in Zambia and beyond. The initial idea behind the establishment of the department of Accounting and Finance was to provide Government, industry and Commerce with well educated young men and women in the field of accountancy.
