Interaction with companies is fundamental to this specialisation. You will have the opportunity to visit companies, meet future potential employers, join study associations, and attend guest lectures and workshops given by auditing firms such as KPMG, Ernst & Young, Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu and PricewaterhouseCoopers.
