Accounting and Finance Department

Accounting is a professional program that prepares students for careers in industry, public accounting, government (local, state and federal) and not-for-profit institutions (hospitals, schools, etc.).

As industry and the economy grow more complex, the demand for accountants continues to grow and the role that the accountant fulfills in the reporting and analysis of financial data becomes increasingly more important and critical.

Finance concentrates enjoy many diverse opportunities in corporate and government institutions. The growing field of investment and financial services offers positions from brokers and traders and portfolio and money managers to certified financial planners and chartered financial analysts.

The finance profession is challenging, dynamic and rewarding. The successful student will develop and apply analytical and communicative skills needed in today’s business environment.
