ACCOUNTING (ACCT)
The accounting program prepares students for careers such as the independent practice of public accounting, controllership, and general accounting management. Graduate work in accounting is offered for those who wish more background for the positions described above and for those who wish to teach in colleges and universities. In many instances, a five-year program leading to a Master of Accounting degree will be desirable to achieve a student's objectives.
The department offers graduate instruction leading to the Master of Accounting degree and participates in the programs leading to the Master of Business Administration and Doctor of Philosophy degrees with a major in management. For admission and degree requirements, please see the Graduate Catalog.
Accounting courses are not offered on a pass-fail basis.
