Need help with deciding on Acct masters program.

Ok so I want to pursue masters degree in Accounting and Im confused between the difference in MS in AccT and a MBA in Acct.

Was wondering if those of you in the acct field could help me out.

Thanks

Re: Need help with deciding on Acct masters program.

I am not an accountant- but have my MBA and I think the difference in those programs is the MS focuses on accounting only whereas the MBA is a longer program and gives you touches of different aspects of management- for example at Baruch we had marketing, ops management, HR management, IT management, managerial acct, managerial finance, economics, stats, etc....

I personally think if you are going to do it, might as well do the MBA at an accredited program since it doesn't hurt to have that on your resume!
