Overview

The Accounting BSc degree from California Lutheran University curriculum provides a careful balance of practice and theory with a liberal arts core, helping you to succeed in passing the CPA exam and in graduate studies.

Gain real-world accounting skills

Your coursework and case studies will teach you to identify real-world problems and use critical thinking skills to solve them. You’ll learn how to collaborate and communicate with people at all levels of the business, both internally and externally. Because the accountant of today must be a “jack-of-all-trades” who can fit comfortably into any business setting, Cal Lutheran’s accounting majors receive extensive preparation in both general business and the liberal arts.
