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
