Master of Science in Accounting - Curriculum
 
One-Year Program for Undergraduate Accounting Majors
 
(from AACSB-accredited institutions/fall admission only)
 

The basic program of 32 credits is designed for undergraduate accounting majors from AACSB-accredited programs who can complete degree requirements in one year. Coursework taken from a non-AACSB-accredited program is subject to faculty review to determine course waiver eligibility. Students without an undergraduate degree in business or accounting may be admitted, but will need additional prerequisite coursework (spring admission is permissible for these students).
