BA/BS in Accounting and Related Services

The accounting major develops skill in analysing, reviewing and forecasting financial information. Courses cover taxation, auditing, business law and both financial and managerial accounting, which gives graduates the preparation to succeed in nearly any industry. Students may join student chapters of professional groups for internal auditors and management accountants, attend workshops and meet working professionals. Local businesses provide mentoring, and a collegiate business leaders group prepares students for competitions. The Kelce core allows a second business major at no extra cost. Graduates work as auditors, budget analysts, credit analysts, data scientists, financial examiners, tax examiners and tax collectors in government, finance and healthcare.
