The top 10 universities for accounting and finance is dominated by the universities in the US and UK, but also features two Australian entries, non from Africa and Asia.

We will lay more emphasis about the strengths and specializations of each of these world-leading universities for accounting and finance

1. HARVARD UNIVERSITY
Harvard University is the best in the world and well respected across many different subject areas – in fact it’s ranked number one in 10 out of the 30 subjects covered in the 2013 QS World University Rankings by Subject. But the prestigious Harvard Business School is undoubtedly among the university’s most famous schools. Research at the school’s accounting and management research unit currently focuses on the use of performance measurement systems to help businesses communicate with external investors, improve resource allocation and strategy, and build accountability.

2. LONDON SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS AND POLITICAL SCIENCE (LSE)
Specializing in social sciences, LSE ranks highly across these subjects – for example, it’s also currently ranked second for politics and international studies. LSE’s Department of Accounting offers BSc, MSc, diploma and PhD programs, and has identified three key strands of research: regulation, financial reporting and auditing; the economics of accounting; and the organizational and strategic aspects of accounting.

3. UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD
The University of Oxford doesn’t have an undergraduate course specifically in accounting and/or finance, though these subjects are available within the economics and management degree. It offers several different masters programs in finance, either singly or in combination with a second subject, and its Saïd Business School is home to internationally renowned research groups focusing on both accounting and finance.

4. UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE
The University of Cambridge doesn’t teach any undergraduate courses specifically in accounting and finance, though these subjects may be covered in other programs, but does offer several MPhil programs in finance. The university’s finance and accounting research group, based at the Judge Business School, focuses on: business finance, financial policy, empirical corporate finance, investment management, financial reporting and stock markets.

5. MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY (MIT)
MIT, currently number one in the overall QS World University Rankings, also has its own world-renowned business school – the MIT Sloan School of Management. Again, the university’s accounting and finance programs are concentrated at graduate level, with research groups dedicated to both fields. Relevant research centers include the laboratory for Financial Engineering, Center for Energy and Environmental Policy Research, and MIT Center for Digital Business.
