The Master of Business Administration with a concentration in Accounting (MBA/ACC) is designed to develop or enhance the financial management skills necessary to function effectively within private businesses, non-profit organizations, and public agencies. The program concentrates on managing fiscal resources within the structure, culture, and mission of any organization. The accounting specialization addresses advanced costing techniques, accounting theory, accounting information systems, and issues in corporate taxation, among other subjects. This program, when combined with a BSB/ACC, should provide sufficient credits to sit for the CPA exam. Students should always contact the Board of Accountancy in the state in which they plan to sit for the CPA examination to determine the state-specific requirements. A CPA exam review course is strongly recommended before sitting for the exam.
