Accounting Programs Marietta offers two majors for students interested in preparing for careers in accounting. There is also a minor and a certificate.
Most states now have such a requirement.
The primary audience for the minor is students majoring in non-business subjects, but students majoring in the department do pursue the minor. Thus, the major is ideal for students intending to pursue graduate work at the masters or doctoral level or whose professional work and careers would not necessarily be enhanced by possession of the CPA certification. As well as acquiring a technical competence in this important aspect of commerce, students will find a curriculum that includes an accounting theory course. Students are encouraged to consult with the program's director of internships and take advantage of the internship opportunities available. With the assistance of a faculty advisor, students will enroll in business and non-business elective courses consistent with their interests and career goals.
