The Accounting programme at Xiamen University (XMU), which was introduced in 1924, is currently ranked top in China according to China’s Ministry of Education. We were one of the pioneer batches in 1987 to be officially authorised to offer the programme which had been identified as one of the national key disciplines. In the 2001 national key discipline assessment, we were ranked No. 1 in China and rewarded with a full score and were again authorised as a key provider of that programme. XMU was the first university to offer a doctoral degree programme in Accounting in mainland China, and has produced nearly one third of all PhD graduates in Accounting in China.
