The Bachelor of Science in Accounting (ACCA) prepares students for corporate and business accounting, auditing and public accounting, industrial and managerial accounting, and governmental and not-for-profit accounting. The program also provides a sound foundation for students to pursue graduate studies in accounting or related fields.

With the strong business and economic climate in the greater Philadelphia area, combined with proximity to New York City, a major global financial centre, our students have many opportunities for internships, real-world learning opportunities, and excellent career prospects after they graduate.
