(152 credits)

This dual licensure-qualifying degree combines the BS in Business Administration with a major in Accounting, and the MBA in Accounting. It is designed to prepare students for careers in public accounting, and meets the education requirements for licensure as a Certified Public Accountant in New York State.

The BS/MBA provides students with a strong foundation in management and accounting, and affords students the opportunities to develop within themselves the abilities associated with superior managerial performance.

Undergraduate students who are admitted to the Graduate Management Studies program will be permitted to enroll in two graduate management and two graduate accounting courses while undergraduates. This arrangement allows students to accelerate their studies and to reduce the total number of credits for this dual degree from 164 to 152 credits. It is therefore conceivable that students can complete this degree in five years.

Students accepted into the BS/MBA program must complete the following curriculum:
