The accounting major at Wisconsin Lutheran College is nested within the liberal arts and firmly grounded in Christ. Students will begin with general education requirements, introductory business courses, and collateral courses in communication, math, and philosophy. Students will complete all required accounting courses.
The program is built to develop students with skills in critical thinking, analyzing, ethical decision making, and communicating. Students are prepared to make an immediate contribution to an organization upon graduation. Accounting professors combine theoretical knowledge and research with real world examples. This real world experience is further enhanced through various possibilities for internships.
The accounting major contains the necessary coursework for admission to most MBA programs. Additionally, through completing required coursework and taking 150 total credits, students are eligible to take the nationally administered Certified Public Accountant exam and obtain a CPA license from the state in which they seek employment. Students should work with their advisor to plan out a program of study.
