The demand for sharp, skilled CPAs will see significant growth through the year 2026. Lubin’s BBA in Accounting and MS in Financial Management program streamlines your path to the C-Suite.

The combined program is for students pursuing careers in accounting with a focus on financial management. You will graduate with a strong background in both disciplines and will be well prepared for careers as financial managers and leaders in global corporations. You’ll gain a comprehensive understanding of financial and managerial accounting, taxes, capital budgeting, cash flow valuation, risk management, capital structure, dividend policy, mergers and acquisitions, and more.

The BBA component of the program fulfills the 150-credit-hour requirement for public accounting and New York State CPA licensure, so you will be fully prepared to take the CPA exam upon graduation.

"When I first came to Pace, I applied as a finance major, then I switched to accounting, so this was a great way to join both my interests. I first got involved with KPMG by doing a leadership program with them, and that led to a second internship where I did both audit and advisory work. It was a really good experience for me and they actually extended an offer for full-time employment." —Kristhy Jimenez ’14, Director, Financial Due Diligence, KPMG
