Bachelor of Business Administration - Second Degree - Accounting (Optional Co-op)

Accountants are central to the operations and strategies of all types of organizations. They require integrity and the ability to think critically, communicate and interact with others effectively. Accounting is the foundation of organizational short and long-term success. It involves measuring, analyzing and reporting on factors that affect organizational performance, resources and risk.

Students will train to be an accountant, not a bookkeeper. Students will gain technical skills and learn how to address a broad range of business problems. Classes are small, allowing for one-on-one interaction with professors, who have professional accounting designations, PhDs in accounting or both. Students will acquire and practice the skills needed for success, including writing, presenting, using professional tools and case analysis.

Students will study financial reporting, individual and corporate taxation, business analytics and information systems, auditing, management control systems and costing, as well as variety of other management disciplines.
