As a Fisher MAcc student, you will use your accounting and non-accounting elective requirements to help support your possible career objective(s), be it (they) financial reporting and analysis, assurance services, taxation, etc.
Fisher’s Master of Accounting Program helps you gain a broader and deeper understanding of how accounting functions within organizations. You develop critical and analytical thinking, as well as reinforce strong technical skills required for CPA licensing, in the Fisher Master of Accounting program, recently ranked 10th best in the nation by The CPA Personnel Report.
You build personal relationships almost immediately . One week prior to the start of classes in September, you will join with all other admitted students for a full day orientation.
