Introduction

Accounting is at the core of nearly every institution and organization—from your favorite sports teams and bands to nonprofit groups and Fortune 500 companies. Suppose you want the financial expertise and big-picture business perspective to help organizations make smarter decisions and make a difference, even in uncertain times. In that case, this is the program for you. And if you like giving back and being at the center of it all and want a flexible, highly respected career that can take you virtually anywhere, then accounting might be the perfect fit.

What will I learn?

As an accounting major, you'll learn about accounting concepts and theories and gain the technical skills and competencies needed to deliver reliable information as a professional accountant. Most of your classes will cover financial reporting, auditing, taxation, and data analysis, and you'll have time for some electives. Because your professional success often depends on navigating complex situations and working with people (often at the same time), you'll also learn how to think critically, mitigate risk, share actionable insights, and communicate effectively with clients and colleagues.

What can I do outside of class?

Put your talent and skills to work as you learn more about the accounting field—and get ready for whatever comes next.

  • Student groups: Choose from a variety of clubs, including groups just for accounting students. Our clubs have won national and international awards and offer tons of opportunities for networking with current members of the accounting and business community, as well as community service options like our free tax preparation services.
  • Internships and experiential learning: Whether you want an internship at a top accounting firm (and maybe even a job offer before graduation) or you're looking for other ways to get real-world experience, we're here to help you.
  • Events: Hear from professionals and distinguished speakers who come to campus to discuss emerging topics and trends in the field.
