Emphasis in Taxation

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:

• Influence of Taxation on Business Decisions

• Tax Compliance, Tax Research and Tax Planning 

• Estate and Financial Planning

• Key Business Taxation Topics and Related Planning

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.
