  • Offer M.S. degrees in several functional areas of business.

In most states, candidates for the CPA examination are required to have completed 150 semester hours of course work in order to be eligible to take the examination. Each of these programs offered by the Department of Accounting, Taxation, and Legal Studies in Business should enable accounting students to meet this requirement. (Students are advised to check with their state boards of accountancy to obtain specific requirements.)
