For Nigerian students pursuing accounting degrees, exposure to IFRS can play a crucial role in shaping their understanding of the profession and its future prospects. This study will examine how IFRS adoption affects the perception of the accounting profession among Nigerian students, focusing on their career aspirations, views on professional development, and attitudes toward IFRS certification.
