Accountants in the United States earn nearly double the median wage of all occupations nationwide and can expect above-average job growth projections.
High Demand, High Compensation
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the demand for accountants remains high. RIC’s accounting program prepares you for entry-level positions, such as:
- external auditor
- tax accountant
- corporate accountant
- management accountant
Many of our students choose to become certified public accountants (CPAs) – the gold standard in the accounting profession. Depending on the courses you take in the program, the Accounting Department will prepare you for the CPA exam.
