MBA in Professional Accounting
The MBA in Professional Accounting is designed to enable graduating MBAs to meet the New York State requirements to sit for the Certified Public Accountant examination. It also prepares them for the business challenges many CPAs encounter as they progress in their careers.
The program is intended for both business and liberal arts graduates. The credit waiver policy and the depth of course offerings make the program ideal for the accountant or working professional who desires both the MBA degree and the CPA credential. Liberal arts graduates seeking a graduate degree and a career in accounting benefit from the broadly based core instruction of the MBA program and the expertise developed in the specialized professional accounting courses.
