Earning your degree in Accounting gives you flexibility in choosing employment or furthering your education. If you choose immediate employment, you will have the skills to obtain an entry-level position in a public, private, or governmental entity. If you choose to further your education, you will have the coursework necessary to enter graduate accounting programs, such as the Master of Accountancy. As a TROY student, you will have an opportunity to seek a paid internship at one of the many local, regional, and national firms or private company businesses and governmental agencies that recruit Troy University students. The internships generally begin in January and last approximately three months.
