Given my situation, what advice would you give me regarding career paths, pursuing a CPA, and making the most of my Finance degree while still using my accounting knowledge?

I am a senior and am currently switching from an Accounting major to a Finance major due to not meeting the requirements for four accounting classes by one grade. To add, my overall GPA is good and I am in honors. I decided to switch to Finance since it is the closest major in terms of credits. I feel very upset, but I think I can still pursue a CPA since I have taken some accounting classes.

In my Financial Accounting class, I was taught how to create financial statements from scratch, and that is what I did for my final exam with no cheat sheets. I enjoyed and understood how to create financial statements. But now, knowing I can't pursue an Accounting degree, it really hurts.

Given my interests in accounting, sustainability, environmental issues, and bioethics, are there any master's programs or career paths you would recommend that could combine these interests? I am particularly interested in learning whether there are STEM-designated graduate programs that would allow me to use my accounting and finance background while working in sustainability, ESG, environmental management, or bioethics-related fields.
