Go beyond the expected.  

The Department of Accounting and Management Information Systems offers a program leading to the Master of Science degree in Accounting. The objective of the M.S. in Accounting program is to extend the education of qualified students into advanced study in each of the major areas of the field of accounting (financial, managerial, information systems, auditing, and taxation), as well as in the supporting fields of finance and quantitative methods.

Why Pursue an MS Accounting Degree? Because you want to go further, the M.S. in Accounting provides advanced preparation for careers in public accounting, information systems consulting, industry, and government, and establishes a foundation for further study at the Ph.D. level in preparation for an academic career. Additional concentration toward more in-depth study in any of the five accounting areas is possible by the combination of elective courses and independent study/research with an interested faculty member.
How do I apply?  
A detailed brochure on the M.S. program is available by calling (302) 831-2963.  Application forms are available from the University's Graduate Admissions Office or the Department of Accounting and MIS.  On-line applications are encouraged and are available through http://www.udel.edu/gradoffice/applicants/
