Abstract
ABSTRACT Over the past several years, there have been numerous calls by the accounting profession, advisory boards, and the American Accounting Association to increase the incorporation of data analytics and related tools into the accounting curriculum. While the calls have been loud and clear for “what” needs to be included in the accounting curriculum, the accounting programs have struggled with “how” to incorporate data analytics. This paper describes how one Master's of Accounting Program (M.Acc.) modified its graduate accounting program in a unique way to incorporate data analytics. Led by faculty, the changes were identified and implemented within nine months. Additionally, data analytics was implemented throughout the program, rather than as a stand-alone class. While not a lasting solution, it enabled the M.Acc. program to incorporate substantive changes into the program in a quick and efficient manner, pending a more extensive revision of the M.Acc. curriculum.
