Beschreibung des Programms

The Master of Science in Accounting Program focuses on providing advanced accounting preparation for careers in accounting and financial management in the public and private sector. Students learn to effectively evaluate ethical situations that an accountant or financial manager might face in a business setting by incorporating the laws and standards relating to financial reporting and the importance of personal integrity. Graduates also demonstrate an ability to think critically and to solve accounting problems.

Why a Graduate Degree in Accounting from Prairie View A&M University?

  • Program is designed for professionals and working adults
  • Classes are scheduled in the evenings or Saturdays in Houston at the PVAMU Northwest Houston Center
  • Classes are small, allowing faculty to provide detailed feedback and assistance
  • Courses are taught by experienced CPAs and professors who have terminal degrees in their fields of study
  • All programs are accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB International), the gold standard of business school accreditation

Accounting 4+1 Program

The Accounting 4+1 program seeks to prepare accounting majors for CPA certification. This rigorous, accelerated program allows eligible students to complete two degrees: a Bachelor of Business Administration in Accounting (BBA) and a Master of Science in Accounting (MSA) – typically in five years.

CPA Exam

Workshop Option Students in the MSA program can participate in optional CPA examination workshops taught by PVAMU faculty. By participating in the workshops, students gain increased familiarity with the format and content of the uniform CPA examination, more information about how they should prepare for the exam and additional skills and knowledge required to pass the CPA exam.

Courses and Degree Plan

The PVAMU MSA is a 30-credit hour program comprised of seven core courses (21 credit hours) and three elective courses (nine credit hours). Students must successfully complete all 30 semester hours including both core courses and elective courses to satisfy the degree requirements.

A student with a non-accounting undergraduate degree must complete the prerequisite courses with a grade of “C” or higher before he or she can be formally admitted to the MSA program. Specific program requirements will be determined during the admission process which includes a complete review of undergraduate transcripts and work experience.

Tuition and fees for Texas residents are approximately $1,100 per course. For non-Texas residents, tuition and fees are approximately $2,000 per course. Many companies have excellent tuition reimbursement programs for employees.
