Degree Programs Offered

Bachelor of Business Administration (B.B.A), major in Accounting

The undergraduate accounting curriculum provides a broad education in accounting theory and practice with an appreciation for ethical decision making. Students completing the four-year program (120 credit hours) earn a Bachelor of Business Administration degree with a major in accounting. Career options include positions in corporations, government, and other not-for-profit organizations.

Integrated Program: B.B.A. major in Accounting/Master of Accountancy

Currently, the B.B.A. degree with a major in Accounting alone does not satisfy the educational requirements to become a Certified Public Accounting (CPA) in Texas; CPA candidates must earn 150 college credit hours. Of the 150 hours, 30 must be upper-division accounting courses (including a research course), and another 24 must be upper-division business courses (including business communication).*

The Department provides the opportunity for B.B.A. students to enter a 30 hour Master of Accountancy (M.Acy.) program which offers graduate level accounting courses that, coupled with the undergraduate degree, currently satisfy the educational requirements to become a CPA in Texas. In addition to the career choices available to B.B.A. graduates, M.Acy. graduates are better prepared for career opportunities in public accounting specializing in auditing, tax, or management consulting.

 For more information about graduate program requirements and the admission process, please consult the graduate catalog.
