So, when you graduate with an accounting degree from DSU, you’ll be entrusted with the financial aspects of your business. You will also be highly educated in the social and ethical responsibilities of the business world.

Our program lets you focus on the logistics of accounting. Technology-supported approaches, like QuickBooks, Sage 50, and tax preparation software will be used. You’ll also interpret financial statements, identify complex business operations, and analyze a revenue stream, using revenue recognition standards.
