− | BYU's [http://marriottschool.byu.edu/soa School of Accountancy] offers a specialized [http://marriottschool.byu.edu/soa/curriculum/phdprep.cfm PhD Prep Track] as part of the Masters of Accountancy (MAcc) degree. The program is designed to prepare students to enroll in a Ph.D. program in accounting at another university after finishing their master’s degree. Students in both the five-year integrated program and the two-year graduate program are eligible to apply to the PhD Prep Track. The program involves Ph.D.-style seminars to learn about research and academic work, as well as coursework in mathematics, econometrics, and statistics. <div style="float:right; margin: 0 0 1em 1em;">[[Image:Infocircle.jpg|link=]]</div> Students who participated in this program have been [[University's where Individuals Received their Ph.D.|highly successful in placing at research intensive Ph.D. programs]]. Those who complete their Ph.D. in accounting enter a field where there is [http://aaahq.org/temp/phd/AccountingFacultyUSCollegesUniv.pdf high demand], and it is projected that this will be the case for the foreseeable future. [[How much do accounting professors make?|Starting salaries]] for new professors in accounting are two to four times higher than starting salaries for MAcc graduates.

In other words, you must use your education not to distinguish yourself from others but to devote yourself to them--to helping them grow and flourish, even if it seems at the expense of your own prominence and glory. This is the way of our Savior." Elder Robert D.
