The mission of the Department of Accountancy is to have nationally recognized bachelor's and master's degree programs in accountancy that provide students with the life-long ability to seek and acquire accounting and business knowledge and translate it into responsible action in a competitive environment.
Bachelor's Degree Program Objectives:
The objectives of the bachelor's degree program in accountancy are (1) to provide students with a general understanding of multiple areas of accounting, (2) to provide students the knowledge and skills needed to prepare them for graduate business and accounting programs, and (3) to prepare students for entry-level accounting positions that require only an undergraduate degree.
Master's Degree Program Objectives:
The objectives of the master's degree program in accountancy are (1) to allow students to obtain a more in-depth understanding of selected areas of accounting and business and (2) to provide them with the knowledge and skills needed to prepare them for entry-level accounting positions that require more than a bachelor's degree.
