Why would someone want to earn an MPAcc degree?
Increasingly, accountants serve both their immediate clients and the public in understanding and evaluating complex transactions. Whether in an audit, management accounting and consulting, or tax advisory role, a contemporary accountant needs the theoretical and practical background offered by a Master of Professional Accounting degree. In recognition of this need, most states (including Washington State) now require an additional year of education beyond the four years generally needed for a bachelors degree in order to take the CPA examination. The MPAcc program offers students the opportunity to earn a Masters degree in Accounting while meeting the 5th year educational requirement to become a Certified Public Accountant.
