What is Accounting?
Proper analysis is key to the success of any business and is utilized in many forms. While some fields may analyze consumer behavior, human resources, or quality control in a business, accounting involves the recording, reporting, and analysis of financial transactions. From running a lemonade stand to running a globally-operating corporation, understanding core accounting principles is essential to the success of any business.
What Careers do Accounting Students Enter?
Students graduating with a Accounting degree from La Sierra University are in high demand in the workplace due to the great versatility of experience in accounting. Many accounting graduates select management and financial-related occupations as accountants, auditors, budget analysts, actuaries, loan officers, or financial analysts. There are, however, many other applications for accounting in areas you may not expect. For example, did you know that there are only five entry programs at the FBI to become a Special Agent? The first is in accounting.

Courses include:
- In our School of Business, we believe in the value of small class-sizes combined with highly engaged professors.
- We limit the maximum enrollment of each of our accounting courses to thirty students or fewer, allowing our professors to work closely with each student, maximizing their potential for learning.
- In addition, each of our professors holds regular office hours, a time for students to meet with them for assistance, questions, advice, or even to learn of networking or career opportunities. There is nothing that delights our professors more than students interested in their own growth.
