Corporate Accounting Advising

Back to programs

The BA in business with a concentration in corporate accounting addresses the educational needs of many students who have an interest in accounting, but no plans to enter public accounting. The emphasis of this program is managerial accounting. The six major courses in the concentration in corporate accounting prepare students for corporate accounting positions by helping students develop skills in strategic financial planning, control, corporate compliance and decision-making. Upon completion of the program, students may take the Certified Management Accountant exam.
