I suggest you read the information about both accounting and marketing
accouting:

and marketing:
http://www.handbook.uts.edu.au/directory/maj08441.html

The Accounting major builds upon the core subjects to develop the knowledge, skills, values and other intellectual attributes needed by current and future accountants. This major satisfies the university education requirements of CPA Australia and The Institute of Chartered Accountants in Australia.

Students intending to enrol in the Accounting major must complete the foundation core subjects 22207 Accounting Transactions and Business Decisions and 25300 Fundamentals of Business Finance (or their pre-2001 equivalents) in order to meet the requirements of the major.

As part of the Accounting major, Bachelor of Business, Bachelor of Laws (C10125) students may undertake 70417 Corporate Law instead of 79014 Applied Company Law, and 76212 Revenue Law instead of 79017 Taxation Law.

Students should note that CPA Australia will not, in principle, accept Conceded Passes in subjects required by them. However, CPA Australia will accept a Conceded Pass in a first- or second-year subject, provided that a further subject in the same subject area has been passed. Further information can be obtained from CPA Australia.
