Accounting

Accounting is a data-driven discipline that enables companies to achieve their strategic goals by providing a common language for communicating financial performance to stakeholders (private equity investors, shareholders, etc.) and tracking costs. The Accounting Minor is designed with this idea in mind and focuses on developing these skills. The minor is recommended for students seeking careers in such fields as strategy consulting, finance, marketing, and supply chain management.
