USI's accounting degree gives you a competitive advantage in the job market

From the entertainment industry to nonprofits to government agencies, accounting expertise is always in demand. Often called the language of business, accounting is essential to every organization—and professionals fluent in it are highly valued.

The Romain College of Business accounting program is known for its excellence and innovation, pairing expert faculty with a challenging, cutting-edge curriculum. Our mission is simple: to give you an outstanding learning experience and prepare you to become the kind of highly trained accounting professional that regional and national employers actively seek.

Our students don’t just learn in the classroom—they shine on the national stage. USI accounting teams have consistently excelled in business case competitions, including earning finalist and championship placements at the prestigious Institute of Management Accountants (IMA) Student Case Competition.

USI’s accounting program also carries the gold standard of quality—special accreditation in accounting from the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB). Fewer than 200 accounting programs worldwide hold this distinction, setting USI apart as one of the nation’s top programs.
