Take Your Accounting Career to the Next Level
Get the degree that will take your career to the next level. Pace University began as a one-room school for accountants in 1906 and over the years, we’ve perfected our programs in accounting. Since then, Pace’s Lubin School of Business has earned dual AACSB accreditation in both accounting and business—something fewer than 2% of all business schools worldwide can claim. When you earn your MBA in Accounting at Pace, you’re learning the essential aspects of accounting and auditing within the broader context of business strategy, global markets, and data-driven decision-making. We provide CPA review courses (Becker CPA Review) in all programs, and all our programs are ready for the new "Core + Disciplines" CPA exams.
