For students wishing a deeper focus in taxation, we offer the Master of Accounting degree with an Emphasis in Taxation. To graduate with this formal recognition, a student is required to take nine credits of tax courses beyond the introductory level (Introduction to Taxation or its equivalent). 
 
The courses from which the nine credits might be taken include:

• BUAD 515 Influence of Taxation on Business Decisions (3 credits)
• BUAD 518 Tax Compliance, Tax Research and Tax Planning (3 credits)
• BUAD 595 Estate and Financial Planning (3 credits)
• BUAD 595 Taxation of Compensation and Benefits (1.5 credits)
• BUAD 595 Taxation of International Transactions (1.5 credits)

Please note that not all electives are offered in each year or every semester. It is possible that in some years appropriate courses may be offered in the Law School that would qualify for the Emphasis in Taxation.
