Program Overview
The goal of the Master of Accountancy (MAcc) program is to provide students with the greater breadth and depth of accounting and business knowledge needed to pursue a career as a professional accountant in public practice, industry,or non-profit organizations. In addition, the program is designed to provide students possessing an undergraduate degree in accounting with the additional hours needed to apply for and take the CPA exam.

Courses are 16 weeks in length and the entire program can be completed in one year.
