Department of Accounting

The Accounting Department focuses on developing students’ abilities in financial and managerial accounting, taxation, auditing, and accounting information systems; thus opening up multiple career pathways into the profession and/or graduate school. Many students move on to obtain valuable certifications such as the CPA or CMA.

We focus on helping students succeed in the professional world of accounting. Our courses develop hands-on skills in researching accounting principles and the tax code, coding VBA Excel, designing databases, and using audit and visualization software. The accounting department also provides student accounting society events, an annual meet-the-firms recruiting event, and job expeditions that help place students in desirable positions and graduate schools throughout the United States.
