Students in an MS in Accounting program can expect to complete 30 to 36 credit hours of coursework. Full time students could complete these programs in 12 to 18 months. The MS curriculum is similar to that of a Master of Accountancy (MAcc), and usually satisfies CPA licensure education requirements.
Two programs are available to students who wish to study accounting at the University. The first is the four-year major in accounting leading to the Bachelor of Business Administration degree. The second is the five-year integrated approach to the Master in Professional Accounting degree, which leads to the award of both the BBA and the Master in Professional Accounting degrees.
