San Diego State University
Business Administration B.S. with Emphasis in Accounting

Accounting can be called the language of business. Its roots go back thousands of years to a time when an exchange of goods was recorded on pieces of clay. Today's accountants use sophisticated computers and communications equipment for their work. Intelligent and accurate management decisions are dependent upon the ability of accountants to analyze and interpret the data they compile on these machines. The major provides students with traditional technical accounting skills, as well as expanded skills in analytical reasoning, problem solving, computers, and oral and written communication. The accounting program prepares students to succeed in careers with public accounting firms, corporations, and non-profit organizations.
