Abstract : Education of Forensic Accounting in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia: An Empirical Study By: Atekah AbdulSamad Mohammed Fattani Advisor: Professor: Saleh AbdulRahman Al-Saad Abstract This study aims to shed lights on the significance of Forensic Accounting education in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. First, the researcher establishes the theoretical background of the subject. A questionnaire, consisting of several parts, has been created based on the review of the relevant literature. The questionnaires have been distributed to a random sample of academic faculty, auditors, and judges in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Several findings have been obtained with regards to the core skills and qualifications that are fundamental for forensic accountants, including: forensic accountants should receive professional education in accounting and auditing; they should demonstrate considerable expertise in forensic accounting through their knowledge of the standards of accounting and auditing. Moreover, forensic accountants should possess high-level strategic thinking skills, use critical analysis, and be able to take a more holistic approach to the issues under investigation. The study has also identified a number of topics that should be integrated into the forensic accounting curriculum, including: knowledge of the proper related legislations and regulations pertaining to financial and accounting matters; knowledge of the principles and regulations of taxes and Zakat; and knowledge of the principles of jurisprudence and accounting of transactions. With respect to teaching of forensic accounting in the future, the majority of the study participants recommended to integrate a course on forensic accounting into the existing accounting curriculum. The participants assume that such course would fulfill social needs for more qualified forensic accountants who can establish the right and achieve equity.
