Program Overview

Accounting and financial forensics is a specialized field of accounting born out of the need to look beyond general accounting functions to identify concerns in the financial industry, including financial discrepancies, fraud, risk assessment, cybercrime, compliance concerns, and other issues related to complex financial transactions.

Students earning a Master of Science in Accounting and Financial Forensics (MSAFF) are also on the front lines of tax fraud and money laundering forensics, as well as non-criminal investigations such as determining the value of a business or collecting relevant data related to a bankruptcy.

The MSAFF at Florida Tech gives graduates advanced investigation, critical thinking, and financial auditing expertise to perform work such as financial and tax accounting research, information systems and internal auditing, fraud examination, information security and data intelligence, and financial management and portfolio analyses. Accounting and financial forensics experts can act as financial fraud prevention advisors and must be able to put complex financial information in simple terms for others—such as lawyers, CEOs, members of a jury, or other investigators—to understand.
