Students in the program at Florida State University, preparing for a professional career in public accounting or tax accounting, and others who wish to obtain more advanced and specialized knowledge in the field of accounting, should also plan to complete the Master of Accounting (MAcc) program. 

The Master of Accounting program provides students with exposure to advanced theories and topics in the field of accounting. It offers an opportunity to pursue specialized interests and a broader knowledge of the accounting discipline in general. Completion of the BS program fulfills all educational requirements to sit for the CPA examination in the state of Florida and completion of the MAcc program satisfies the educational requirements to be licensed in the state of Florida and many other jurisdictions. In the MAcc program, students select a particular focus area from the three program options: Assurance and Advisory Services, Accounting–Generalist, and Taxation.
