The focus in the teaching discipline is on the financial management and policy aspects of public and non-profit organisations. The discipline also covers accounting of those organisations.

The students will also learn, for instance, cost-benefit analysis and related techniques, public finance, organisation economics, auditing, and public policy and programme evaluation. European questions receive emphasis in several of the courses. Although there is a strong aspect of educating and training specialists in public financial management, the graduates will also be strong competitors with graduates from many other disciplines in the social sciences. The graduates typically start their careers as young specialists who gradually ascend to managerial positions. The discipline is also a good basis for pursuing doctoral studies and a scholarly career.
