Master of Science in Accounting Rochester Institute of Technology

RIT’s accounting master's degree pulls together important areas of technology, finance, strategy, and compliance to help you advance your accounting career. In addition to gaining the technological skills needed to design, operate, and control accounting information systems–skills that are highly sought after by employers–you also will be prepared to sit for the Certified Public Accountancy (CPA) exam, which our graduates consistently score higher on than state and national averages.

The master of science in accounting is designed to satisfy New York state requirements for students with an undergraduate degree in accounting to sit for the CPA exam and attain CPA licensure. Students may complete the program on a full- or part-time basis, with the full-time program beginning exclusively in the fall semester.
