Degree Title:
Master of Business Administration - Accountancy
College:
University of Mary
Description:

The MBA program prepares experienced business professionals for leadership positions. This program of study is designed for individuals with an accounting degree who wish to complete the 150 credit hours of study required to take the Certified Public Accountant examination. The program will focus on core MBA subjects and utilize CPA review courses. CPA licensing is granted by each state, but this program prepares you for the exam.

Among the greatest challenges faced by adult students seeking a MBA are the program prerequisites, often as high as six courses. The University of Mary has addressed this concern by including two foundation courses in the MBA distance education program. The foundation courses cover the basic concepts and skills typically included in an undergraduate program in business administration. In addition to the foundation and core courses, accountancy students enroll in the following courses which offer preparation to complete the CPA exam: Financial Accounting & Reporting, Auditing & Attestation, Accounting Regulation, and Business Environment & Concepts.
