But what if you could double your qualifications while you study for one? That is exactly what combining your ACCA Singapore with an OBU degree in Singapore offers. A unique opportunity to earn a globally respected professional qualification and a UK university degree at the same time. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The ACCA program and the OBU Singapore route both offer support and higher job opportunities for students who are pursuing them.

This article will reveal the path through which you can earn an ACCA Oxford Brookes degree, alongside your ACCA, and why it is a strategic move for your career.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">What is the OBU Degree?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">In partnership with ACCA, the OBU degree refers to the BSc in Applied Accounting offered by Oxford Brookes University (OBU). As an ACCA student, you are eligible to complete this undergraduate degree alongside your <a href=\"https:\/\/mirchawala.com\/acca-in-singapore\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ACCA Singapore<\/a> without enrolling in a separate university. This degree is specifically designed for students pursuing the ACCA in Singapore exams and aims to blend theoretical knowledge with practical accounting applications. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This degree is awarded after the submission of a research and analysis project (RAP) and a skills and learning (SLS) to OBU.
