The Master of Science in Accounting program enhances students’ technical training and critical thinking skills while building expertise in a particular area of practice. The curriculum, together with most undergraduate accounting programs, should satisfy the 150-hour educational requirement for certification and licensure as a certified public accountant (CPA). This is the educational standard advocated by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) that is required in most states.
Students choose courses from three specialization tracks: financial accounting and assurance, internal audit and risk management, and taxation.
MS in Accounting students must take five courses or 15-16 credits per semester to graduate on schedule. The full-time program is two semesters in length. Some students with limited business backgrounds may be required to take an additional course each semester.
