    MBA in Public Accounting and MS in Taxation (MTA)
 
The MBA in Public Accounting and MS in Taxation Program (MTA) is a unique dual-degree program consisting of an MBA in Public Accounting and a Master of Science in Taxation. The program’s long-term goal is to develop broadly educated executives whose expertise in taxation and accounting opens a path to executive positions and provides a unique perspective to analyze important business problems and issues. Short term, the program is intended to meet the exceptional demand from accounting firms, financial institutions, and multinational corporations for tax professionals with upper-management potential.

The first component of the Program combines the breadth of instruction in general business principles characteristic of the MBA with the common body of knowledge recommended by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The second component of the Program provides comprehensive education and technical expertise in the field of taxation.

The MTA Program is an intensive program with selective enrollment. It consists of 99 credits and is intended for both business and liberal arts graduates. Individuals with previous business education or experience may benefit from the Program’s credit waiver policy, which reduces the number of credits required to complete the program.

Students who complete the MTA Program are eligible to fulfill the curriculum requirements to sit for the New York State Certified Public Accountant Examination. For more specific information with regard to the exam and state licensure requirements (e.g. undergraduate liberal arts and science requirements, public accounting experience), students should visit: www.nasba.org.
