Public Accounting Degree Programs

Public accounting is distinct because it focuses on external preparation and attestation of financial information (accounting work performed by individuals outside of the reporting entity).

Public accounting programs focus on the knowledge of auditing, taxation and the regulatory environment to ensure that their clients’ accounting information is presented adequately. The coursework offered in these programs is typical of all accounting degree programs and includes business law, ethics, economics and computer science.
