University at Buffalo Accounting Programs

In addition to developing quantitative and analytical competencies, accounting majors from the University at Buffalo take courses in marketing and human resources while building soft skills critical to career success. UB accounting students are well-prepared for entry-level professional positions in public accounting and a range of careers in industry and government. However, if someone wishes to become licensed as a CPA in New York State and virtually all other states, they must satisfy the 150-hour education requirements.
