Business Administration, Accounting Information Systems Concentration, MBA

Many traditional accounting functions are now embodied in accounting information systems that require a different combination of technical and financial expertise. The accounting information systems (AIS) concentration is designed to enable students to design, use, and audit sophisticated accounting information systems and to act as consultants to advise organizations as to the liabilities and risks associated with changing technology. Emerging career opportunities in technology-related fields include electronic commerce, information technology auditing, business systems consulting, forensics, analytics, information risk assessment, and web assurance. These areas are going to be the key accounting markets of the future.
