Accounting

Accounting is more than numbers—it’s the language of business. As an accounting major, you’ll build a strong foundation in financial reporting, auditing, taxation, and business ethics. Our program includes advanced accounting courses that meet the Texas State Board of Public Accountancy (TSBPA) requirements to sit for the Certified Public Accountant (CPA) exam.

Accountants are essential to every organization, serving as trusted advisors to investors, managers, and decision-makers. The demand for skilled accountants continues to grow, with opportunities across public accounting, corporate finance, government, and nonprofit sectors.

A career in this field has specific eligibility standards to sit for a licensing exam. Before you start your degree, read our ineligibility policy.
