Accountancy

While most of our accounting graduates join Public Accounting firms, they are prepared for a variety of careers including Internal Auditing, Corporate Accounting, Governmental and Non-For-Profit Accounting, Internal Revenue Service, FBI, and Forensic Accounting. To achieve their career goals, accounting majors learn how to think critically and to be effective in oral and written presentations. There are student chapters of the Institute of Management Accountants and the National Association of Black Accountants that sponsor career-planning and other co-curricular activities.
