Overview

Accounting is offered by Babson College. As close to an accounting bachelor’s degree as possible, the concentration provides preparation for the certified public accountant (CPA) exam, as well as accounting positions in audit, tax, forensic accounting, mergers & acquisitions, corporate accounting and internal audit.

Key Facts

You will learn to be an accountant and can pursue these roles in any industry, such as biotech, financial services, technology, retail, and many others. This is a dynamic profession with a wide range of opportunities. Comparable to an undergraduate accounting degree, you will graduate with extensive knowledge of accounting fundamentals, deep understanding of accounting concepts, and hands-on experience with financial planning and data analytics. You will develop critical thinking and analytical skills that will prepare you to solve financial, operational and societal problems. You will also collaborate with diverse teams and clients in a human-centered environment and become a trusted advisor. Our accounting program provides the foundation for taking the CPA exam and becoming a CPA. However, the educational requirements to become a licensed CPA vary by state and typically require more accounting credits than this concentration provides. Since most states require 150 total credits of education, careful planning is essential. If this is your professional path, your advisor and the accounting faculty will work with you to ensure that you complete the necessary courses. The National State Boards of Accountancy provide details of the requirements to sit for the CPA exam in each state.
