The program is designed to prepare students to enroll in a Ph.D. program in accounting at another university after finishing their master’s degree. Students in both the five-year integrated program and the two-year graduate program are eligible to apply to the PhD Prep Track. The program involves Ph.D.-style seminars to learn about research and academic work, as well as coursework in mathematics, econometrics, and statistics. <div style="float:right; margin: 0 0 1em 1em;">[[Image:Infocircle.jpg|alt=Info|Info]]</div> Students who participated in this program have been highly successful in placing at research intensive Ph.D. programs.
