Students preparing for PricewaterhouseCoopers Case Competition
Consistent with the missions of the University and School of Business,
the program in Accounting, a component of the Department of Accounting,
Banking and Finance, prepares students for professional careers
in a global market, in the areas of public, private, governmental
accounting and graduate study. The program will achieve its mission
through curricula structured to enable students to comprehend,
analyze and critically assess an entity's economic status and provide
recommendations and direction, which will optimize its value. The
Accounting Program provides the student with extensive exposure
to computer-assisted instruction. The faculty endeavor to instill
in students a commitment to ethical values and social responsibility.
The Accounting Program has a minimum requirement of 125 credit
hours. Those students who are from states, that require the 150
credit-hours to sit for the CPA Exam, are encouraged to take additional
electives to satisfy that requirement or to enroll in the newly
established five-year MBA program.
