Accounting MinorAccounting and Finance
Labovitz School of Business and Economics
The minor in accounting is valuable to students who want to understand the accounting process and its applications in modern society. The minor offers training for entry into positions in government, industry, and social service organizations that require an understanding of accounting but not the depth provided by the B.Acc. degree program.
For students outside of LSBE, no more than 25 percent (30 credits) of total credits required for a degree may be drawn from the courses offered by LSBE or recognized by the school as equivalent transfer courses while completing this minor. Economics courses are excluded from these calculations.
