The Master of Science in Taxation (M.S.T.) is an evening program that provides advanced study in taxation to prepare professionals for a career in taxation.

Internships in Accountancy

The internship (ACCY 673) consists of full-time work experience in an accounting function for 10 to 13 weeks and the completion of written and oral reports. Applications are reviewed by the internship coordinator and approved on the basis of professional promise, instructor recommendation, and credit in specified courses. Permanent employment may not be used for ACCY 673, and ACCY 673 may not be taken as the last course in the program. The Department of Accountancy coordinates all academic internships. More detailed information is available in the departmental office.
