No, an MBA is a broad based degree in management, includes subjects like finance, marketing, economics, strategy, operations, etc, and is seen as a preparation for a variety of business careers (banking, consulting, product management, etc.) While you can concentrate in accounting with an MBA, that concentration will likely only require a couple accounting classes. A Master in Accountancy (MAcc) or Master of Science in Accountancy (MSA) is a degree that is focused almost exclusively on accounting and is preparation for sitting for the CPA exam and a career as an accountant.
