The Manhattan University Difference

Three Disciplines, One Career Advantage

Few departments bring accounting, business analytics and computer information systems under one roof. That structure gives students a rare cross-disciplinary edge: an analytics major fluent in business law, a CIS student earning IBM digital credentials, an accounting student preparing for the CPA. Backed by faculty researchers, signature competitions and direct access to New York City employers, students graduate with the credentials, networks and adaptability today's employers expect.

AACSB Accredited and Globally Recognized

The O'Malley School of Business holds AACSB accreditation, a distinction earned by fewer than six percent of business schools worldwide. Students benefit from this gold-standard credential alongside small classes and direct faculty mentorship that defines the Manhattan University experience.

Hands-On From Day One

Students apply classroom learning through internships, the Business Analytics Competition, the Innovation Challenge, hackathons, Google Challenge experiences, and the IRS-certified VITA program serving Bronx residents.

 

Tech Skills That Travel

Coursework spans databases, networks, data analysis, cybersecurity, programming, AI, and cloud computing. Students earn IBM SkillsBuild digital badges in AI, cybersecurity, and analytics to strengthen résumés and LinkedIn profiles.

 

Faculty Who Practice What They Teach

Professors bring active research and professional experience in accounting, tax transparency, ESG reporting, anti-bribery compliance, software engineering, data science, healthcare analytics, corporate governance, and real estate law.

NYC Pathways to Professional Careers

New York City access opens doors in accounting, auditing, taxation, analytics, cybersecurity, consulting, and compliance. Internships and an alumni network spanning the city's financial, technology, and professional-services firms connect what students learn in class to real opportunities across the workforce.

A Community of Future Leaders

Students build leadership and professional networks through the Accounting Society, Law Society, Mock Trial, Women in Business, and honor societies, including Beta Alpha Psi, Beta Gamma Sigma, and Alpha Iota Delta.
