MS in Accounting

The Master of Science in Accounting (MSA) Program prepares students for successful professional careers in accounting and financial management in several contexts: public accounting; forensic accounting; corporate, not-for-profit and governmental financial planning, accounting, and control; and management consulting. The program also prepares students who plan to pursue careers in teaching and research for entry to doctoral programs in accounting.

The MSA provides concepts, technical knowledge, and skills for immediate effectiveness. It also establishes the basis for continual lifetime learning and development to meet future challenges as people’s careers evolve. The subject matter in all the MSA courses is presented in a strategic framework, with a view to preparing graduates to function effectively as advisors to, or members of, senior management teams.
