Accounting

Accounting is known as the language of business – crucial for communicating financial data among organizations and individuals and instrumental within any organization for determining growth and stability. Accounting is a degree with a wide array of possibilities: every field needs the acumen of an accountant to make decisions and formulate a strategy.

Accounting firms who visit the ACU campus are offered a high level of engagement with our students, professional development staff, and the ACU Career Center.

Every year, companies come on campus to interview and hire our students. Some of those companies include PwCEY, KPMG, Weaver and Tidwell, and BKD.

“The professors, the faculty, and the students have shown me what it is to look at those who are different from me and want to learn from them, to learn how to love them, and to be surrounded by a circle of people who have your back 100%. As I leave ACU, I feel completely supported and surrounded by an extraordinary amount of love and I am thankful.”
