School of Accounting

Accounting is the language and basic tool of business. At Â鶹ŮÀÉ, the School of Accounting prides itself on being the pillar and foundation for Business Administration studies. As the School of Accounting, our goal is to prepare students for careers in accounting, auditing, bookkeeping, forensics, tax, government, teaching, and advanced graduate or doctoral research. The School of Accounting offers undergraduate and graduate programs. Our distinguished faculty teaches the theory and applications of accounting concepts and trends. Â鶹ŮÀÉ is one of only 48 universities worldwide to participate in the Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) Internal Audit Education Partnership (IAEP).

The School of Accounting is selective. Meeting the minimum admission requirements does not guarantee admission to the program. Students with a high standing in pre-business courses and/or relevant business experience are preferred over those without such qualifications. Students who have been dismissed from any traditional Accounting program are not eligible for re-admission.
