Today, the accounting curriculum covers dynamic and cutting-edge topics, such as fraud examination/forensic accounting and sustainability accounting and reporting, which explores, among other things, how companies steward the environment and manage employees. Students will get a practical education in the importance of money management and personal financial planning with a focus on topics such as budgeting, investment options, debt management, insurance, and retirement savings.
