With an accounting degree, you'll be able to speak the language of business and work in a high-demand industry. Nonprofit organizations, schools and hospitals, government agencies, and grassroots enterprises all need accountants.

Courses in mathematics, principles of marketing and economics, and different accounting fields will prepare you to graduate with the skills that will make you stand out to prospective employers in this growing field.
