The foundation
courses provide a
comprehensive
general business
education and serve
as the foundation
for advanced study.
These courses are
often referred to as
the common body of
knowledge that
graduates of a
business program are
expected to have
completed.
(MSTax
students need take
only MF01, MF03, and
MF04, but must also
take MF11.)
