Program Overview
The accounting program is as much concerned with the personal
development of the individual as a member of today's society as with his/her technical
competence. The program places emphasis on the concept that the business decision making
process is not just a mere application of accounting theory and techniques but rather is a
blending of this technical ability with sound ethical principles.
The faculty is student oriented. Faculty members are readily available and eager for student
contact both within and outside the classroom. The faculty is interested in the students as
individuals and is vitally concerned with their development. The aim of the program is to
develop a sound basic understanding of accounting theory and practice, as well as the ethical
principles necessary to prepare students for professional careers in public accounting,
business, or government. The accounting program prides itself on bringing practical
knowledge into the classroom based on personal professional experience.
