Bachelor of Business Administration in Accounting
The Bachelor of Business Administration degree with a major in Accounting is accredited
by the International Assembly for Collegiate Business Education.
Because the accountant plays a key role in management decisions, the accounting field
is one of the fastest growing in education and business. The accounting program is
designed to prepare the student for a professional career in industrial, public or
government accounting.
Accounting students become proficient at using the accounting model and developing
the statement of financial position, the income statement, the statement of changes
in owner's equity, and the cash flow statement. This basis will enable students to
make decisions about the presentation of financial data, the analysis of managerial
and cost data, auditing and the reliability of data, and the preparation of personal
and simple business tax returns. To be effective in these activities, students will
develop their oral and written communication skills, their critical thinking skills,
and their numerical skills.
To receive a Bachelor of Business Administration degree in accounting, the accounting
major must successfully complete the business core and the accounting curriculum of
24 hours. The student must complete work applied to the major with a minimum of a
2.25 cumulative grade point average. Any specific business course completed by the
student outside the business core may not be counted toward more than one business
major or minor.
Students planning to sir for the CPA exam in the state of Kentucky should meet with
their academic advisor to ensure that all requirements have been met before graduation.
