What Will I Study?

Our curriculum focuses on preparing each student to successfully complete the examination for becoming a licensed Certified Public Accountant. However, the curriculum is also broad enough to enable students interested in careers in other areas of accounting (for example, general accounting, tax preparation and consulting, cost accounting, and internal auditing) to gain the knowledge required to enter those areas.

Once students have taken the two required basic accounting courses (Principles of Accounting I and II), they then take the following seven accounting courses before obtaining their bachelor’s degree in accounting:

  • Cost/Managerial Accounting
  • Intermediate Accounting I
  • Intermediate Accounting II
  • Accounting with Computers
  • Auditing
  • Federal Income Tax
  • Advanced Accounting
