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. |
