BACHELOR'S DEGREE IN ACCOUNTING
Grounded in general business practices, Baker University's Accounting program takes a real-world approach to teaching, giving you in four years what you need to excel in the competitive business world or to pursue a post-graduate degree.
An invaluable companion to the Accounting curriculum is Baker's general education program. Through coursework in numerous subjects, you learn not only facts and theories. You learn how to learn, how to continue learning throughout life and how to adjust as society and industry change, which is a vital skill for an accountant or businessperson. You will leave with the confidence to succeed in your first job and to adjust with each subsequent professional pursuit.
The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants requires students to complete 150 hours of course work to sit for the CPA examination. This has prompted many schools to establish five-year accounting programs. Completing 16 hours per semester, four Interterm courses and 10 hours of internships and summer courses, you can earn your Accounting degree from Baker University in four years.
Baker's Business programs on the Baldwin City campus have been recognized by the Association of Collegiate Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP). Baker is one of a select number of schools to be accredited by the association. In a national exam, designed to determine students' knowledge upon graduation, Baker students routinely score in the top 10 to 20% compared to students from other schools across the country. Baker's recent employment placement rate is 99 percent (80% employed; 19% pursued advanced degree).
