Accounting MBA Concentration

The Accounting MBA Concentration at Rutgers Business School provides the skills needed to prepare students for careers across a spectrum of industry sectors, including finance, taxation and accounting. The accounting curriculum integrates management skills with accounting theory and practice. Our program focuses on developing ethical business leaders who are ready to face the challenges of a dynamic global economy.

The accounting concentration also provides broad professional competence and skills to prepare graduates for the Uniform CPA examination. The Rutgers Accounting MBA concentration is offered in the Flex MBA program. Courses are offered on the New Brunswick and Newark campuses, and at our off site locations (Jersey City and Madison) with some courses available online. Courses can also be taken through the MBA in Professional Accounting program, which are only offered during the day on the Newark campus.
