What schools offer a MBA in accounting?  Meaning, all the classes are accounting.  I was looking at MBA programs and they cobined the program with other classes.  For example, management and economics.  I am not paying a 100,000 to take economics and management

I’ve heard of some MBA program having concentrations in the major areas of undergrad business (acct, finance, mgmt, marketing, info technology). I really don’t see the point. The purpose of a MBA is to have broad exposure to a variety of business theory. You don’t want an MBA that is heavily concentrated on one discipline, like accounting. If you want to concentrate on accounting specifically, a MS would carry a lot more weight in your field.

So you want to get an MBA without taking management courses? Are you serious?
