Accounting

Add Up to a Successful Career.

With the U.S. Department of Labor predicting that accounting jobs will grow 6% between now and 2031, there’s no better time to become an Accounting Major at Springfield College.

Our broad accounting curriculum—including courses in management, communications, ethics, and data analytics—allows students to gain knowledge in all aspects of the accounting field. Accounting students learn effective strategies for assembling, analyzing, and reporting financial data for a wide range of entities. Internships offer the opportunity for students to put their knowledge into action.

Students graduate ready to start their careers in for-profit or nonprofit organizations; continue their education in graduate school; or obtain professional accounting certifications such as the certified public accountant (CPA) and the certified management accountant (CMA). Springfield graduates often pursue careers as public and private accountants, internal auditors, IT auditors, and government accountants.
