Master of Business Administration/Master of Science in Accounting

In the modern business world, employers are looking for graduates with expertise in multiple fields. The dual degree in accounting combines the strategic business foundation of the MBA with the financial acumen of the M.S. in accounting. With a dual MBA/M.S. in accounting degree, you will complete a wide variety of courses that will give you the foundation you need to succeed as an effective, efficient accounting professional. Youll master technical skills like finance, data analysis, accounting and auditing, while building important business management skills in courses on leadership, organizational behavior, management and entrepreneurship. Full-time students complete the program in two and a half years. Part-time students typically complete the program in approximately four years.

A four-year bachelor’s degree in any academic field from an accredited college or university with a GPA of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale is required. If you have a three-year non-U.S. degree, you may request a review for determination as to equivalency.

Prerequisites

Applicants may have majored in any area during their undergraduate study. However, the M.S. program has as prerequisites the equivalent of the accounting courses required for an undergraduate accounting major as well as completion of courses meeting Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) International general skills, business and management knowledge areas.

Normally, those holding an undergraduate business degree from an accredited AACSB International program will have met the general skills, business and management knowledge areas requirements outside the area of accounting.

Submit a TOEFL score of 100 or higher,

Submit an IELTS score of 7.5 or higher,
