Opportunities for accountants and auditors are growing more quickly than average according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics — at a rate of 22% over the next decade. New jobs are being created due to changing financial laws, new government regulations, international trade and mergers, and increased accountability for protecting businesses and shareholders.

While a bachelor’s degree is the minimum requirement for most accountant and auditor positions, employers prefer applicants with a master's degree in accounting, or with a master's degree in business administration with a concentration in accounting.

An MBA in Accounting is valuable in opening the door to top-paid positions in such highly competitive fields as financial management and financial analysis. It also provides the credentials needed to teach business classes at community colleges or career education schools. Upon completion of the MBA in Accounting, graduates will be prepared to handle effectively high-level positions such as:

Public Accountant
Management Accountant
Government Accountant and Auditor
Internal Auditor
Budget Analyst
Financial Analyst
Controller
Treasurer
Finance Officer
Credit Manager
Risk and Insurance Manager
International Banking Manager
Securities, Commodities, and Financial Services Sales Agents

"The Executive MBA Program has been designed to meet the educational and professional needs of managers, executives, entrepreneurs, and other business leaders.

The Executive MBA curriculum addresses in particular senior, highly self-motivated, analytically-oriented leaders with global or international interests. It is designed for individuals with significant potential, ambition, and those committed to expand their understanding of the broader matrix of business and administration across geographical and cultural boundaries.

As such, the program is largely self-directed. Classes are constructed in an “executive” format to allow maximum flexibility for active professionals and entrepreneurs. Via the refined curriculum, program participants will acquire a sophisticated degree of concept and theory mastery and the research skills required to confront an ever-widening range of contemporary management topics, including a well-developed understanding of entrepreneurial thinking and planning in a globally competitive world. The EMBA curriculum represents a strategic balance of multiple elements: technical rigor, management theory, practical, innovative applications, and knowledge integration, all designed for contextual, real-life (corporate or other) applications.
