Pace started as an accounting institute - so the accounting program is one of it's cornerstones. Everyone I know who majored in accounting at Pace did well - but that was in the 90's - can't say for sure what current status is.

I don't understand your question. The best course for an undergraduate to follow in finance is the general finance degree plan that will include all of the material that you mention.

"Although there is much overlap with an MBA, the MSF provides a broader and deeper exposure to finance, but more limited exposure to general management topics. Thus, an MSF focuses on finance and financial markets, while an MBA, by contrast, is more diverse, covering general aspects of business not dealt with in the MSF - such as human resource management and operations management. Note that an MBA without a specialization in finance will not have covered many of the topics dealt with in the MSF (breadth), and - often even where there is specialization - those areas that are covered may be in less depth. (Some MBA candidates will "dual major" with an MBA/MSF, or later pursue an MSF degree, to gain specialized finance knowledge; some universities also offer this combination as a joint degree.) "

The MBA is a broad general degree that trains you for management in any area of an organization. The MS is narrowly focussed in its field and trains you for high level staff positions, often involving research and analysis but not management. So a lot depends on your career goals. You can use the Official MBA Guide, a free service, to locate suitable MBA programs.

There are four ways to go if you want a Master's in Finance. The first is to get an MBA with a concentration in finance, the second is to get an MS through a finance department in a B-School and the third is to get a degree through some other department. The fourth way is to get into a PhD program, and leave after you complete your written exams. As for the first, an MBA with a concentration in finance from a top MBA program will open a lot of doors for you . It also offers a lot of flexibility in terms of what kinds of jobs you can get. There are also several schools that offer a MS in Finance or in Financial Engineering (MFE). UC-Berkeley's Haas School probably has the premier MFE program. Some schools offer MS in Finance classes that are geared more towards those taking the CFA exams. Several schools are expanding into the MS in Finance arena. The University of Maryland, for example, is building a program. The other area includes departments other than finance trying to make some money in this field. Several mathematics and engineering departments are offering courses or programs in asset pricing. The Economics department at Princeton (which doesn't have a B-School) offers one. So does the mathematics department at University of Chicago. Many of these programs are good -- but I would suggest an MBA from a top school if you can get into one.

A good source is the AACSB. It lists schools accredited by state in business and accounting. Accreditation in accounting is rare. In NJ it's only Rider and in NY there are only 6 or so. There are many more accredited in business. These are no nonsense serious programs at the forefront of business and accounting education.
