Thirty-three credit hours of core and elective courses are necessary to complete the MAcc degree. Students enter the program in September and complete their degree in June with a Graduate Research Seminar. The core curriculum consists of a series of accounting and financial reporting courses.  As electives, a variety of business courses are available including, but not limited to, corporate strategy, finance, marketing, international business, economics and public policy.
