Accounting (B.S.B.A.)

Our Accounting Major Program, B.S.B.A. Degree

The Detroit Mercy Accounting Program develops professional accountants who transcend narrow functional boundaries and can fill a variety of roles in any organization. A Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with a major in Accounting prepares graduates for life's career, not just the next job. Students are taught the accounting skills and analytical tools necessary to succeed in today's rapidly changing economic environment.

A student with a major in Accounting can expect to have many doors open throughout his or her career. Graduates generally begin in entry-level accounting positions, but have also started their career in other areas. Accounting students may apply for any position open to Business Administration majors, so that an Accounting major can be thought of as reaping the most flexibility in the long run.

Upon completion of the 126-hour B.S.B.A. degree program with a major in Accounting, a student is qualified to take the Uniform Certified Public Accounting (CPA) examination. To become licensed as a CPA in Michigan, the accountant must successfully pass the CPA exam, complete a total of 150-credit hours and meet experience and other requirements set by the Michigan Board of Accountancy. Complete information can be obtained on the state site.

A number of other professional certification programs are available to the Accounting Program graduate. Students may choose to pursue certifications in management accounting, financial management, internal auditing, or forensic accounting, for example. Most certifications, like CPA licensing, have education, examination, experience and continuing professional education requirements. Students are encouraged to consult with the faculty about career paths and certification.

The College reserves the right to add or delete course offerings and to redesign the program.

    Experiential Education

    Students in the four-year Accounting program may participate in an experiential education program by completing internship or co-operative education assignments. These are generally completed during the summers after the junior and senior years. A mentor from the voluntary alumni mentoring program will assist and guide each student in career planning and development. This mentoring will supplement the academic advising provided by the College of Business Administration and the many services provided by the University's Center for Career & Professional Development. In recent assignments, students have worked with Chrysler, Deloitte & Touche, DTE, Ernst & Young, Ford, Plante Moran, Quicken Loans, and other firms.
