The Program
The Department of Accounting and Management Information Systems offers a program of study leading to the Master of Accountancy
degree. The mission of the Master of Accountancy (MAcc) program is to build upon the base of knowledge obtained at the baccalaureate
level, and to further nurture the personal and professional development of those interested in graduate education in areas
relevant to the practice of public accounting. The department is committed to offering programs and a setting that attract
students as they choose among competing programs and offers an opportunity to specialize in financial reporting/auditing,
accounting information systems, and taxation.
Prerequisites for Graduate Work
Graduates from any accredited baccalaureate program may be admitted to the MAcc program. However, the program is primarily
designed for students with the equivalent of a business degree and an undergraduate accounting specialization from an accredited
school. All MAcc students must obtain an appropriate background prior to undertaking graduate accounting courses including:
- Satisfactory competencies in written communications and personal computer skills;
- An appropriate general business background and;
- An appropriate course work in financial accounting, managerial accounting, auditing, taxation, and accounting information
systems.
Career Paths
A master's degree builds on the knowledge and critical thinking skills learned in your bachelor's degree program. Our challenging
graduate program advances your organizational skills, expands your scope of expertise, and sharpens your strategic thinking.
It also helps you to communicate your views to others more effectively. BGSU's MAcc program provides both a mental edge and
a valued credential.
BGSU's MAcc program offers you a competitive advantage in the new information age. Research indicates that MAcc degree holders
have a career-building "head start" and are more likely to progress faster and further in public accounting firms. The Master
of Accountancy degree is positioned to become the standard of the 21st century accounting world!
