The undergraduate accounting curriculum develops competence in a broad range of accounting skills and practices.  The curriculum strives to foster critical thinking and problem solving skills.  Our students are prepared to enter professional positions in accounting with business,  nonprofit, or government organizations.  In addition they may continue their education in the Master of Accountancy program and/or pursue a variety of professional certifications. 

The Master of Accountancy program is designed to prepare ethical and informed decision makers with the potential to become leaders in the profession of accountancy.  This program has achieved national recognition due to the outstanding performance of our graduates on the uniform CPA examinations.  The Master of Accountancy students achieved the highest pass rate in the nation on the May 2000 uniform CPA examinations.  Graduates hold positions in some of the most prestigious firms in the world.
