Accounting

#1 Ranked MBA in Ohio


Boler’s MBA Programs offer the opportunity for previous undergraduate accounting majors to add an accounting specialization through the use of two electives. The accounting specialization equips students with advanced skills and knowledge in accounting. Accounting majors can use the additional credit hours in the MBA to qualify to take the CPA exam as well as furthering their knowledge in advanced financial accounting, taxation and tax research, emerging technologies, and transfer pricing.

NOTE: Students who were not undergraduate accounting majors may not be eligible to take advanced accounting electives.

 

Overview


 

After graduating from Boler with an MBA with a specialization in accounting, students will be well-equipped to take the CPA exam and/or pursue a variety of careers in the accounting world, including roles in public accounting, corporate accounting, financial reporting and tax accounting. The curriculum can also prepare students who are interested in consulting or in other roles where a strong understanding of accounting principles is required.

From the lifelong cohort friendships formed, supportive and top tier professors, to the first-class Jesuit business curriculum; I’m absolutely a better professional and person because of my Boler education. I wouldn’t be where I am today without it."
