Accounting

Go beyond the numbers to understand how organizations measure performance, manage risk and make informed decisions. Fisher’s accounting specialization prepares you to understand how organizations measure performance, manage risk and make informed decisions. Through coursework in financial reporting, managerial accounting, auditing and taxation, you’ll develop the technical knowledge, analytical skills and professional judgment to succeed in public accounting, corporate finance, consulting and a wide range of business careers.

Your learning can extend beyond the classroom through student organizations such as the Accounting Association and the National Association of Black Accountants (NABA), where you can build connections, explore career paths and strengthen your leadership experience.

High-achieving students may also pursue Fisher’s Accelerated BSBA/MAcc program, which provides an efficient pathway to earn both a bachelor’s degree and a Master of Accounting by applying select graduate courses toward both degrees.
