The more complex the business world becomes, the more demand there is for accounting professionals. Since accounting is the language of business, the Accounting major introduces the student to the complexities of business both at the national and international level. At the same time, the Accounting major at Neumann University recognizes that a successful businessperson must be well-rounded and possess the ability to communicate proficiently in both an oral and written context. Hence, as Accounting majors prepare to pursue their chosen careers, they are introduced to a liberal arts curriculum which enables them to compete more effectively in a constantly changing business environment. To assist in this preparation, students supplement their classroom instruction with practical work experience in a variety of settings through the completion of a Cooperative Education placement in Accounting.

Accounting majors have many career paths available to them. After graduation, many Accounting majors pursue a professional designation, such as Certified Public Accountant (CPA), Certified Management Accountant (CMA), or Certified Internal Auditor (CIA). With the Five Year BS/MS Program in Accounting Option you will also be allowed to pursue a Master of Science in Accounting with emphasis on Forensics and Fraud Detection.
