Need expert advice on university selection

[varunsahlot123]

Hey everyone.

I have been working as a SAP business one consultant for around 2 yrs and i think that's enough for the software.

I observed in this time my interest in accounting, so as to take my interest further i planned to go for masters with major in SAP accounting, i did some search and found that almost all UA universities teach TERP10 which is very basic to me as i am already a certified, and it involve just the basic overview of business process of SAP which i think wouldn't of much help to me.

Please suggest universities preferably in Canada which offer masters in SAP accounting, means in depth training of accounting.

I hope there are plenty out there like me looking for discussion like this, let's give it a great start.

Regards

Varun,

Hi! Nice to hear that you are building upon your SAP Business One work experiences to further go into SAP Accounting. There are a number of Canadian universities to assess by going to UA Around the World: http://uaaroundtheworld.informatik.tu-muenchen.de/overview(bD1lbiZjPTEwMQ==)/start.htm

Ask the professors for the best approach. Note they may not have a pure SAP only masters program but can advise you the best way to approach your training.

Best regards,

Richard

Thanks Richard,

I appreciate you interest, i have already looked at the universities in the report, most of them just have certification courses not full time degree sort of program. Can you name some uni where i can find an decent SAP accounting degree program, country is no bar (for a desired course i can move anywhere, i heard Victoria uni in Australia has some decent program on this what do you have to say about the Victoria)  but preference is always Canada. .

So you want me to approach each university SAP professor.

Can they be found on this SAP university alliance site, if yes, can you name some who can guide me through. i really have to take decision and short list universities by this year so that i can go ahead with admission procedure.

Hello Varun,

In North America, there are no "masters with major in SAP accounting".  The SAP University Alliances program is geared toward supporting education rather than training.  My recommendation would be to find an accounting master's program that you like at a University Alliances member school.  Degrees are typically awarded by discipline, i.e. Accounting, Marketing, Management, Information Systems.  There are no schools providing a degree in SAP.

If you'd like to discuss this further, please contact me at alex.mcleod01@sap.com
