Pace University Master’s Degrees in Accounting
We’ll help you choose which graduate accounting or taxation program fits your academic and career goals.
Accounting offers excellent compensation, outstanding career opportunities, and industry growth, and there’s no better place to study it than at the Lubin School of Business. Lubin has earned dual AACSB accreditation in both accounting and business—something fewer than 2% of business schools worldwide can claim. And our partnership with the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) means that as an accounting student at Lubin, you may complete coursework that will qualify you for exemptions from ACCA's exams.
We offer four different programs spanning accounting, taxation, and analytics, so you can find the right focus for you. Choose between our campuses in the Financial District in New York City and Westchester County for your convenience.
