i’ve done basic management accounting, and the specialization majors were – Security analysis and portfolio management, merchant banking basics, and international finance.
Even though you have concentrated in Finance for your MBA, you should first figure out what branch in finance you would want to work in. For example, management accounting courses are completely different from M&A or investment analysis. Try to understand the specific career you would want to take and then take the appropriate finance subjects.
If you want the management accounting track, you should also take the CMA (Certified Management Accountant) certification. If you want investments and capital markets, take the CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) exams.
