Accounting
The Accounting Concentration provides training for professional opportunities in both public and private accounting as well as governmental and not-for-profit organizations. Students may choose the traditional four-year degree or the 150 hour Professional Accountancy degree. Completion of this program will qualify the student to sit for the CPA exam in a majority of states. Students preparing for the CPA examination should consult with a member of the Accounting faculty to ensure that students meet the licensing requirements in the states where they wish to practice.
