Master of Professional Accounting - International Student Pathway (Optional Co-op)

Program Description

Available intakes: January & September

This program is an innovative answer to your demands as an international student, as it combines an intensive Business English program with Canadian accounting knowledge and also addresses the demands of a business world that needs accountants who can think critically, communicate effectively and respond to challenges that arise from around the globe.

Your success as an MPAcc grad is due to our focus on a strong integrative approach to accounting and a curriculum that smoothly transitions you from international accounting to North American concepts. The adaptation process begins the moment you arrive on campus. Through our Business English and Skills Transition (BEST) Program we make sure that you get a four-week customized course in business reading, writing, listening and speaking. But we also ensure that you adapt socially. In between classes, we’ve scheduled a full four weeks of activities and trips. You’ll visit Niagara Falls and Toronto, explore St. Catharines and settle into your new life. You’ll know your classmates, the Niagara region and feel comfortable and ready to begin your coursework.

Our MPAcc program includes an optional paid co-op term where you will gain valuable skills, link theory to practice and make important industry connections.
