Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Accounting and Financial Management] From Bucknell University

Regulations and economics governing accounting and financial services are changing constantly, and investors have more questions than ever. You'll need more than a grasp of the rules and analytic tools to succeed in the marketplace of tomorrow — you'll need to understand the economic and political environment where important financial decisions are made. You'll get that in our program.

Leaders must ensure that their organizations use capital efficiently and responsibly, yet they face a shifting economic, political, and regulatory landscape. To succeed, accountants and financial services professionals must have a firm grasp on the analytical tools and conventions of their trade. But they must also understand the broader context in which financial transactions occur and make decisions under conditions of varying uncertainty. Bucknell's Accounting and Financial Management program blurs the lines between accounting and finance. Students learn accounting standards, but they also understand the context in which standards emerge and continue to evolve. They learn the conventions of financial analysis, but they also learn to apply these conventions with integrity and sound judgment.
