WSU's online accounting major includes core courses in financial management, auditing, business strategy, and taxation. But the major also focuses on innovation, both technological and intellectual, so students can evolve with the profession.
Graduates work in public accounting, corporate accounting, government agencies, and private business enterprises.
WSU's College of Business is fully accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB), the premier accrediting agency for degree programs in business administration and accounting. The WSU accounting program is one of only 165 programs worldwide with separate AACSB accounting accreditation.
