Accounting and Professional Services Overview

Accounting is often referred to as the 鈥渓anguage of business鈥. With our experienced faculty and innovative learning opportunities, we鈥檒l help you become fluent in this language. Our grads are highly sought after in the job market thanks to a variety of skills that make them valuable in multiple fields. The field of accounting and the role of accountants is rapidly changing and ripe with opportunities. Accountants are decreasingly asked to just crunch numbers - companies now have expanded the roles of accountants into areas related to financial planning, data analysis, business forecasting, creation and monitoring of internal controls, fraud prevention and detection, and decision support. Completing a degree in accounting will prepare you with a unique skill set to have a challenging, rewarding career. With a degree from our AACSB-accredited and challenging accounting program, you鈥檒l have a competitive advantage in the job market.

The Romain College of Business has earned accreditation from AACSB, which is considered the "gold standard" for business accreditation. Only 5.7% of business schools, globally, have earned that accreditation. Achieving accreditation is a multi-year process of rigorous internal focus, engagement with an AACSB-assigned mentor and peer-reviewed evaluation. Schools must develop and implement a plan to align with accreditation standards. These standards require excellence in areas relating to strategic management and innovation; student, faculty, and staff as active participants; learning and teaching; and academic and professional engagement.聽聽
