Accounting

The Accounting major offers a variety of job opportunities in such areas as public accounting, manufacturing (managerial or cost) accounting, private (corporate) accounting, governmental or not-for-profit accounting, commercial banking, finance and consulting. Compensation for accountants consistently ranks among the highest in all the business disciplines and the demand for accountants has kept pace with supply for many years.

Accounting majors who desire to sit for the CPA or CMA exams should consult with their advisor for current state requirements. All accounting courses offered at Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College are accepted toward partially satisfying the educational requirements required to sit for the above professional examinations.
