The business world increasingly demands accountants have more than a firm grasp of the numbers. You must also be able to think critically and lead, which is precisely why the curriculum for our Bachelor of Business Administration in accounting degree is a blend of traditional accounting and management courses.
As a university solely focused on business, we can help you get a head start on your accounting career by immersing you in accounting courses from day one, not in year two, as often it happens at other colleges and universities. And for those who want to move quickly on to graduate school, our four-year BBA/MBA option helps you take your career path to the next level sooner rather than later.
The global marketplace is becoming more competitive. Give yourself every advantage by applying to Northwood today.
