Mastering accounting research demands significant knowledge in mathematics, probability, statistics, economics, and finance. Students build this foundation through structured courses in their initial two years. Beyond coursework, they engage with research via workshops, faculty collaborations, and assigned projects. The accounting department further connects students to practical applications through the Center for Financial Reporting and Management. Doctoral candidates frequently assist as teaching aides and sometimes lead undergraduate accounting courses.

Qualification Requirements
Applicants admitted to a doctoral program that requires a master’s degree to be earned at Berkeley as a prerequisite (even though the applicant already has a master’s degree from another institution in the same or a closely allied field of study) will be permitted to undertake the second master’s degree, despite the overlap in field.
The following minimum requirements apply to all graduate programs and will be verified by the Graduate Division:
- A bachelor’s degree or recognized equivalent from an accredited institution;
- A grade point average of B or better (3.0);
- If the applicant comes from a country or political entity (e.g., Quebec) where English is not the official language, adequate proficiency in English to do graduate work, as evidenced by a TOEFL score of at least 90 on the iBT test, 570 on the paper-and-pencil test, or an IELTS Band score of at least 7 on a 9-point scale (note that individual programs may set higher levels for any of these); and
- Sufficient undergraduate training to do graduate work in the given field.
