Students can develop a skilled specialization in one of our five certificate tracks: Applied Data Analytics in Accounting, Assurance and Financial Reporting, Tax Compliance and Consulting, Business Advisory and Internal Audit, and Oil & Gas.

The majority of our MSACCY courses (approximately 80%) are offered in the evening to accommodate working professionals. The remaining courses are offered during the regular day class schedule. Students learn to solve complex business problems, recognize dysfunctional accounting situations, and respond appropriately to ethical and regulatory dilemmas, while engaging in accounting research and gaining first-hand experience communicating their findings.
