The Accounting curriculum is designed to provide students with the knowledge and the
skills necessary for employment and growth in the accounting profession. Using the
"language of business," accountants assemble and analyze, process, and
communicate essential information about financial operations.
In addition to course work in accounting principles, theories, and practice, students will
study business law, finance, management, and economics. Related skills are developed
through the study of communications, computer applications, financial analysis, critical
thinking skills, and ethics.
Graduates should qualify for entry-level accounting positions in many types of
organizations including accounting firms, small businesses, manufacturing firms, banks,
hospitals, school systems, and governmental agencies. With work experience and additional
education, an individual may advance in the accounting profession.
