Certificate Program

Along with expanding its tax offerings, KU has created a Tax Law Certificate Program. Certification assures employers that students not only have a mastery of basic principles of individual and entity taxation, but also have been exposed to some of the finer points of tax law and practice.

With so many tax courses to choose from, few students have the opportunity to take them all. As a result, some KU students decide to continue their studies and obtain a Masters of Taxation (LL.M.) degree. These students have been accepted at some of the finest graduate tax programs in the country, including Georgetown and New York University. Because of the excellent foundation KU provides, KU students have excelled in their graduate studies.
