Forensic Accounting, M.S.
A 2016 report by the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners discovered that organizations around the world lose an average of five percent of annual revenues to instances of occupational fraud and abuse. This growing global issue is fueling a demand for professionals with the skills and preparation to identify fraud when it occurs and to inform decision-making processes and develop procedures to protect against it.
This M.S. in Forensic Accounting at SUNY Old Westbury is the first graduate degree in this specific field to be offered on Long Island.
The SUNY Old Westbury Master of Science in Forensic Accounting is a 30-credit program for students seeking a career in this fast-growing arena as a forensic accountant or fraud examiner. Offered over a three-semester arc in one calendar year, the program enables students to meet the 150-credit hour requirement to qualify for CPA licensure in New York State. In addition, the program will provide students with a foundation for the Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE) exam.
