B.Com (Hons.) + ACCA (International Accounting and Finance) with Grant Thornton

Chandigarh University Uttar Pradesh’s BCom Hons, in collaboration with Grant Thornton (GT), is built around one idea: to provide commerce students real accountancy credentials, & not just a degree. Through ACCA - a globally recognised professional body- students train in audit, taxation, and corporate finance alongside their coursework. GT's own certifications add another layer of industry recognition. The result is a BCom ACCA graduate who doesn't need to chase certifications after college; they've already got them, plus the practical finance skills that come from training under professionals who work in the field, not just teach it.

Scope

Financial management skills are only getting more valuable and India's e-commerce sector alone is expected to hit $300 billion by 2030, which means a growing need for people who actually understand taxation, risk, and compliance & not just theory. That's the gap this BCom ACCA program is built to fill. Graduates get the benefit of having both an ACCA qualification and Grant Thornton certification, so instead of spending years collecting credentials after graduation, they're job-ready from day one. It's the best possible direct path into multinational corporations, e-commerce giants, and global accounting firms, the kind of roles that usually take longer to reach.
