Business Administration

Accounting Concentration
HEGIS Code 5004

USC’s Business Administration/Accounting concentration prepares graduates for career positions in financial accounting, cost accounting, and tax accounting.  Positions may be found in industry, banking, and insurance.  This concentration can also lead to a position in the government sector after completing pertinent Civil Service examinations.  Once this concentration is completed, students will be competent in calculating, analyzing, and solving management-level accounting problems. 

A number of graduates from this program also continue their studies at a four-year college where they can earn their bachelor’s degree and/or master’s degree.  With a master’s degree, they would become eligible to take the NYS examination to become a Certified Public Accountant.
