There is substantial demand in the workforce for professionals and managers who possess specialized skills, knowledge, and abilities in both the accounting and financial management disciplines. The Master of Science (MS) in accounting and financial management is designed to help those individuals who want to raise their knowledge base in these areas, rather than seek a general management or general business-related degree, to move either into a position in the chief financial officer (CFO) career path or simply to move into another career field without becoming so specialized that they lose flexibility.
The program emphasizes understanding the financial reporting process and its effect on financial markets, as well as using and analyzing financial information to make informed management decisions. Subject matter from the accounting and finance disciplines is integrated in a capstone course that focuses on the application of principles, theories, and techniques previously covered in the curriculum. The goal is to prepare students to assume positions of increasing responsibility within the financial operations of an organization.
