These findings lend support to those of Góis and Brás (2013) who found that graduate students in Portuguese
higher education institutions perceive accounting profession as interesting and not boring as pointed out by some
studies (Malthus & Fowler, 2009). Similarly our findings confirm those of Wessels and Steenkamp (2009) who
found that in South Africa, undergraduate students considered accounting profession to be an interesting, admirable,
good, worthwhile, and a profession that gives a sense of accomplishment.
