The field of accounting offers stimulating and challenging work that is constantly evolving. Career opportunities are available in public accounting, industry, government, not-for-profit instituions, and other business-related organizations.

Information is the lifeblood of all organizations in the 21st century. With knowledge of both business and technology, IS professionals are uniquely qualified to develop technological solutions that help businesses compete and prosper.
