Southern Utah University’s Joint MBA/MAcc Program is designed for students who see career advantages in pursuing both a Master of Business Administration and a Master of Accountancy.
A joint degree allows you to earn two different degrees at the same time during your master’s program. This advantage makes individuals much more attractive to employers. But, a joint degree can bring you even more than that. With a joint master’s degree, there are bound to be more job opportunities waiting for you upon graduation. For example, if you graduate with a joint A/B degree, you can find positions that relate solely with the A area of the degree, or that relates directly to area B of the degree. You may also be able to find a career where both skill sets and knowledge are needed.
With a joint degree, you will be able to think and see the world and society in a unique way. In other words, a joint degree makes you more dynamic, helping you to be more creative when solving problems.
