Accounting

Description

The $249,500 grant K-State received was one of the largest grants awarded and was used to support a comprehensive revision of the accounting curriculum. The revision of our program reflects a change in how accounting is taught, and K-State’s program has become a model for accounting education throughout the
United States.

Training a person in the mechanics of accounting can be done in four years. However, practicing accounting professionals have made it clear that to succeed, graduates need well-developed communication skills and the ability to work in teams. They also must be able to solve unstructured problems and be able to meet the changes in accounting practices that will occur throughout their careers. Accounting students also must be broadly educated to understand the complex social, legal and economic environment in which businesses operate. In order to integrate the professional skills demanded by the profession, the university faculty realized the curriculum required a fifth year.
