Accounting Stories#7: Tjibbe Bosman (University of Amsterdam & Foundation for Auditing Research)

In this episode of ‘Accounting Stories’, Bart Dierynck and Christian Peters talk with Tjibbe Bosman. Tjibbe is an accounting researcher and PhD-candidate at the University of Amsterdam and also Senior Research Data Specialist of the Foundation for Auditing Research. After obtaining his MSc in Accountancy at Nyenrode Business School, Tjibbe worked more than 10 years for PwC in the Netherlands and in Germany. Why did Tjibbe leave a well-paid job to start a PhD? How did Tjibbe experience the switch to being a PhD-student and what is the difference if you do a PhD directly after your MSc? What is Tjibbe’s view on the accountancy profession today? And then, the 1 million-dollar question: how could audit quality be improved? You find the answers in this entertaining podcast! After making 7 podcasts in English, we decided to make a podcast in Dutch. No worries for our English-speaking listeners, we will continue making podcasts in English in the future.   Hosts: Bart Dierynck & Christian Peters Production: Ed Boschman
