Program Overview

The one-year Masters in Accounting (MS-A one-year) program is designed to help prepare students for the complex, challenging and competitive world of business and accounting. This one-year program enables students to continue their accounting studies in a graduate format. The program builds on students' undergraduate education and leads to a greater degree of accounting sophistication.

Attracting students from a variety of backgrounds, the MS-A one-year program is design to meet a wide range of educational needs. Students can choose from several areas of concentration within the program: a more traditional one-year track where students study advanced accounting topics designed to provide them with a broad perspective on the environment (economic, tax, financial) in which accounting operates, or the accounting information systems (AIS) track where students study analysis and design, system implementation, maintenance and audit of information systems. The AIS concentration is heavily computing oriented, project based and writing intensive.
