Master in Rechnungswesen (M.ACC)

The M.ACC curriculum is a 30-credit-hour program of study offered through the Accounting graduate program that may be completed in two regular semesters and a summer term or in three semesters. Students without prior or complete business and accounting training must acquire basic competency in the following business core foundation areas: accounting, statistics, management information systems, economics, finance, marketing, and management. These competencies may be acquired through specified business core foundation course work. The specific number of business core foundation courses required depends on the applicant’s prior academic work. The basic competency course work may be taken after admission to the MAcc program, but certain business core foundation courses must be completed prior to taking MAcc courses that are in the same subject or that otherwise require a knowledge of the business core foundation material.

The objective of the master of accountancy program is to provide candidates with a greater breadth and depth in accounting than is possible in the baccalaureate or master of business administration program in preparation for careers as professional accountants in financial institutions, government, industry, nonprofit organizations, and public practice.

It doesn't matter if you ask a longtime professor, recent graduate, passionate alumnus or a fresh-eyed freshman. Pick a member of the K-State community at random and ask him or her what it means to be a Wildcat, and you will most likely get a one-word answer: Family.

K-Staters consider themselves family, and that belief shines through contributions as diverse as our members. Researchers invent solutions to problems that could save a life halfway across the world, and students band together on a Saturday morning for community service. Thousands of Wildcat fans pack our stadiums shouting in unison, and our leadership guides us in ways befitting the obligations of a land-grant university.

In fact, these obligations could be considered our family values, and the many ways we achieve them are the Wildcat Way. We invite you to come along for the ride, because there's always room for one more in the K-State family.

K-State's main campus sits in "The Little Apple," and thrives in its vibrant college-town atmosphere.

The Manhattan campus encompasses more than 2,320 acres, including agricultural and research facilities.

Manhattan has a population of more than 56,000, and enjoys a great relationship with the K-State family.

This campus is situated next door to Fort Riley, a large Army installation, and collaborates on many military-focused projects.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security's National Bio and Agro-defense Facility is being constructed adjacent to campus.
