You will be able to develop and analyze accounting information, provide assurances of financial control and accuracy, develop investment and tax strategies, and advise top-level managers as they make important decisions.

 

Graduate Requirements


Clark’s MSA program consists of 10 courses (units) for students with an undergraduate accounting degree program that follows the U. S. (U.S. GAAP) or international accounting (IFRS) standards.

Full-time students typically complete the program in four or fewer semesters depending upon the number of courses that are waived. Part-time students typically complete the programs in eight semesters or fewer depending on number of waivers and courses taken per semester.
