Overview
Led by a faculty of accomplished and esteemed business leaders and intellectuals, we offer this unique opportunity from the nation’s financial and business epicenter, New York City.
With new laws, rules and regulations, it can be difficult to meet the requirements for CPA licensure coming out of an undergraduate program. The increasing demand for highly technical accounting professionals has also changed the industry’s hiring criteria. The classes within our program are designed to address the current needs of modern accounting professionals and facilitate the creative application of knowledge.
Students will learn about how technology has and will continue to change, discover emerging markets, and develop an understanding of new trends in FinTech, cryptocurrencies (E.g., Bitcoin and Ethereum), and NFT—and what they mean for the future.
