Master of Accounting Program
|
|
|
|
Making
its way through university and State of Ohio approval processes
is a proposal to establish a Master of Accounting (MAcc) degree
program. The program reflects the changing nature of the field
of accounting, specifically the need for accountants in the
new economy to have a broader and deeper education. This one-year,
45-credit hour program enables students to develop skills in
information systems technology and other business fields, as
well as strengthen their understanding of accounting. The program
curriculum will allow students to meet Ohio’s new CPA licensing
requirements, which begin in the year 2000.
