In addition, students may select electives in their field of choice to develop emphasis areas to meet their needs. The core courses plus the electives result in a 33-hour program. Students with a non-business undergraduate degree typically must take up to 15 hours of the Fast-Track foundation courses, or their equivalent, resulting in as much as a 48-hour program for such students.

All courses must be taken at the 6000 level. However, those students seeking to sit for the CPA exam may take one 5000 level course in accounting to help prepare them for the exam while meeting the 150-hour rule for the exam.

MGMT 6423 - Strategic Management , must be taken after all core courses have been taken or during the student’s last semester of coursework.

Only a single 3-hour internship or one directed independent study may count toward the degree.
