women with a specialty master's in business

Specialty Masters of Business degrees provide students with advanced-level training in a specific specialty area such as accounting, international management, human resources management and many others.

While MBA programs focus on general management skills, specialty Masters of Business programs provide an in-depth focus on issues related to a specific field.

This means that while both an MBA with a focus on accounting and a Master of Accounting (MAcc) degree will prepare you to assume managerial positions within the field, other Specialty Masters of Business degrees, like the MBA will provide you with more general skills that are transferable to other areas, while the MAcc will provide you with greater accounting expertise, but fewer transferable skills.
