Bachelor of Arts (Accounting)

The Bachelor of Arts in Accounting degree combines a traditionally broad liberal arts education with the classes and coursework needed to gain a strong, foundational understanding of the accounting profession.

The Accounting program at Holy Family University prepares students for entry-level positions in corporate, government, or public accounting, emphasizing an overall global business perspective and understanding of business ethics and standards of social responsibility for the profession.

Accounting is an excellent career for students with logical thinking skills, organizational skills, and the ability to analyze and present complex financial information. 

Students learn how to analyze and apply financial rules and regulations, generate financial records and communicate these reports with internal and external stakeholders. They may also gain valuable experience in business strategy, risk management, information systems, quantitative analysis and business ethics, and participate in a hands-on internship to apply their knowledge.
