Overview

Students from the Accounting BSBA degree offered by The University of Vermont should have good analytical skills, be creative problem-solvers, have strong communication skills and be effective leaders. Accountants are always in demand and the career possibilities are endless. An accounting concentration can put you on the path to become a Certified Public Accountant (CPA), prepare you for a career in tax or corporate management, help you become a fraud investigator or help you become an entrepreneur.

Most accounting students plan for a career in accounting and work toward obtaining professional certification as either a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) and/or a Certified Management Accountant (CMA). Students intending to pursue this path should choose an accounting concentration and plan to obtain a Master of Accountancy immediately following completion of their undergraduate degree. UVM offers a 5th year Master of Accountancy Degree (MAcc).

Careers in accounting include auditing, tax, governmental accounting, and corporate accounting or a combination of these areas.
