Teresa Beed, Ph.D., CPA
Director, Masters of Accountancy Program
 

The accounting profession is in the midst of a period of tremendous change. There has never been a more exciting time to be considering a future in accounting. A unique career opportunity waits since there is always a growing need for accountants - in good or bad economic times. Many choices will unfold before you as the world becomes increasingly global and the need for accounting expertise expands and changes. Today, the demand for accountants exceeds the supply.

Our Masters of Accountancy Program is one of only a few in the Northwest that has achieved separate AACSB accounting accreditation. Our program earned the highest graduate pass rate in the nation for the May 2000 CPA Exam. The program is large enough to allow students to form a network of people to have as future contacts, but is also small enough to allow students and professors to get to know each other. Due to the knowledge, background, service, expertise, and research efforts of the faculty, you will be exposed to all aspects of accounting from its history up to the cutting edge of current events.

“The resources, education, and support I received from UM’s Accounting Department combined with the activities available inside and outside of the classroom, prepared me for a successful transition from college to a professional career. With the accounting background I established at UM, I was able to obtain a position with the #1 accounting firm in the world.”
