The Quinlan School of Business' BBA in accounting degree program is both rigorous and flexible. Students who major in accounting pursue careers in auditing, taxation, systems, consulting, and management accounting. Coursework prepares students for the CPA, CMA, CFM, and CIA examinations. In addition, qualified students may enter and graduate with a Master of Science in Accountancy (MSA) in as little as one additional year of study.

The goal of the Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) in Accounting program is to prepare students for successful careers in the accounting profession. To accomplish this, the Department of Accounting and Business Law shares the vision, mission, values and pledges made by the University and the Quinlan School of Business. However, the department also makes the following pledges to its students:

• To continuously strive to add value to the classroom experience.
• To recognize that while there is a professional relationship that must be maintained between students and their professor, we view our relationship as a partnership, with rights allowed and responsibilities expected from both faculty and students.
• To recognize that learning occurs outside the classroom as well as inside. To this end, the department pledges to actively support student activities and initiatives that further enhance their educational experience.
