Forensic Accounting is one of eight
"careers to count on." (U.S. News and World Report, February 18, 2002
p 46-48, 50). Studying forensic accounting courses is an investment in
the future.
"Forensic Accounting is a Hot Job."

The Forensic Accounting Masters Program at FAU
The focus of this program is not on debits
and credits but rather the fastest growing area within in accounting
and one of the best career opportunities for the next decade.
"Forensic" means legal and investigative. Hence the
program focuses on
fraud investigation
and prevention, dispute resolution, litigation support,
valuation, expert testimony; and terrorist, money-laundering and other
criminal investigations.
One of
the great things about forensic accounting is that many people find it
be very exciting, interesting, and fulfilling. It's not your
grandfather's accounting!
Program Overview
Offered under the FAU College of Business, School
of Accounting, The Executive Master in Forensic Accounting Program is
a 2-year degree program leading to a Master of Accounting with a
concentration in Forensic Accounting. The program is tailored to busy
professionals who want to study the advanced aspects of forensic
accounting under a blue-ribbon faculty and curricula. The program is
offered in such a way that busy professionals can complete the entire
program through web-based distance learning without ever once visiting
the campus. On the other hand, virtually all courses are offered with
optional on-campus lectures, so students desiring the traditional
campus experience can attend the lectures as often or as little as
desired.
Study Online or On-Campus--Your choice
The on-campus lecture classes last 1 to 1 1/2 hours
each, rather than the usual 3 hours, making it possible to easily
attend 2 classes on Saturday mornings. Those who don't wish to attend
any given class may receive a video distributed either via the net or
express mail. Videos not distributed directly over the web are
distributed on CD Rom and/or DVD format, so that they can be viewable
on almost any computer. Our goal is to make the videos available
anywhere in the world, and even to the traveling professional who may
be away from the home office for weeks at a time. Watch/listen to the
lectures
