Niagara University is proud to announce the launch of the NEW Masters of Science in Accounting degree program. This is intended to provide students with a rigorous, advanced study in the areas of accounting, taxation and audit and assurance practice.Â
This 33-credit program comprised of seven core courses in the field of accounting, auditing and internal controls, as well as, corporate financial policy. The remaining four elective classes include courses in taxation, finance, organizational development and strategic information systems and big data analysis.Â
The M.S. Accounting will provide a solid foundation in theory, research, and professional practice that will prepare program graduates to write the CPA Exam. Additionally, the M.S. Accounting program will provide those students seeking to progress academically into Ph.D. programs in accounting a strong background in research theory and practice.
This program is designed for students who have an undergraduate degree in Accounting from an accredited North American institutions in order to meet the necessary requirements to enroll.Â
Instead of having a broad focus covering the many aspects of business management, a master of accounting degree offers a more targeted background with extensive knowledge of accounting specifically.
We provide an affordable tuition rate that allows for access to scholarships, graduate assistantships, and corporate partnership discounts. Additionally, working professionals may have access to employer reimbursement funding.
Faculty leading these courses have extensive field and research experience and are leaders within the industry regionally. They bring that expertise into the classroom, offering the most in-depth look into industry operations and best practices.
At the current time we cannot accept students who do not have a degree in Accounting from a North American accredited institution.
Applications are accepted on a rolling admissions basis. Once all of the requirements have been received, your application will be reviewed by the admissions committee and you will be notified of the decision.
