Master of Accountancy

The objective of the Master of Accountancy (M.Acc) degree program is to provide an opportunity for students to achieve greater breadth and depth in the study of accountancy than is possible in the baccalaureate program. As preparation for entry into a dynamic profession the curriculum fosters clear, logical, and analytical thought processes, effective oral and written communications, and life-long learning skills. Graduates pursue careers as professional accountants in public practice, industry, financial institutions, government, and other not-for-profit organizations.

The Master of Accountancy degree program includes two concentrations from which to choose: 1) Taxation, and 2) Audit/Information Systems. Degree requirements are dependent upon the specialization chosen. [For more information...]

  1. Students must understand basic concepts and terminology in key functional areas of business (i.e., accounting, finance, management, and marketing).

The program has been structured with flexibility so as to serve both holders of baccalaureate degrees in business administration and those who hold degrees in other disciplines.
