The mission of the accounting program is consistent with the mission of the College of Business (COB) at Albany State University. The mission of the COB, through the scholarship of teaching and learning, is to prepare business professionals. Graduates will be ethical, effective communicators, problem solvers, technologically proficient and globally and environmentally conscious. The accounting program is designed to prepare accountants for the 21 st century. Students are given the opportunity to gain a wide variety of needed skills. Courses in the program built a rich knowledge of accounting theory and practice on both public and private levels. Students are also introduced and taught to use and interact with contemporary technology. Developing critical thinking and communications skills is also emphasized in the program. Additionally, students are encouraged to sit for certification examinations at the completion of the program. How has the program evolved over time? The number of students majoring in accounting as of the fall semester for the pass ten years is listed below
2 Over time, the number of accounting majors has been relatively stable. The 2002 number (109) represents 3.1% of the total ASU enrollment and the 2011 number (133) represents 2.9% of the total ASU enrollment. The number of bachelor s degree awarded in accounting for the past eleven academic years is listed below

For the academic year , 23 bachelor s degrees were awarded, which represented 3.3% of the total degrees awarded by ASU. What were the historical expectations? Accounting has always been considered a significant program within the COB. Accounting is the language of business. Accounting serves has the foundation for all other majors within COB. Thus the more students know about accounting, the more students know about the business. How does the program fit in the ASU Strategic Plan? Accounting is consistent in its focus with ASU Strategic Plan. ASU provides a largely African-American student population with a opportunity to receive a high quality functional education. It does his within an environment that challenges their intellects and respects their ethnicity. Accounting is the language of business, thus accounting graduates have greater mobility in the marketplace. Graduates can pursue careers in accounting firms, financial institutions, manufacturing companies, federal, state and local governments, and various nonprofits institutions. In addition, these careers are available locally, regionally, nationally and internationally. 3
4 ACADEMIC PROGRAM REVIEW CRITERION Number 2 External Demand for the Program ( Maximum of 1/2 Page) What is the demand for the program using local, regional, state and national data? The 2013 Salary Guide for Accounting and Finance by Robert Half gives data on the demand for accountants. It states that there are two job markets. While general unemployment remains high, unemployment rates in areas such as accounting and auditing and financial analysis are well below national average. Employers are shifting their hiring focus toward core accounting roles and positions that support businesses growth. In addition, employers want employees with professional certifications such as CPA, CIA, CMA, CGMA, etc. Positions in demand include but not limited to: - -Cost accountants - -Tax accountants - -Forensic accountants - -Governmental/Not-for-Profit accountants - -Auditors The demand for accountants is high on a local, regional, state and national basis. The Salary Guide give data for more that 135 U.S. cities using local variances. More specifically, it includes Georgia data for Atlanta, Macon and Savannah. Other sources confirm that the median pay for bachelor s degree is $61,690 or $29.66 per hour. For the projected period between the years , 190,700 new accounting positions are projected. This is the highest for any major in COB. This converts into a national growth rate of 16%, a Georgia growth rate of.57% and a southwest Georgia growth rate of.48%. The projected demand of accounting majors will continue to be strong. Is the demand being met by other institutions of higher education in the state? The region? Yes, the demand is being met by other institutions in the state and nationally. Accounting is a significant major on many campuses. Accounting attracts some of the best and brightness students. How does the program meet the special mission of a HBCU institution? While opportunities for students with degrees in accounting are numerous, this is particularly a fertile ground for minority graduates. As societal needs continue to be more diverse, the demand for Black/African-American accounting professionals will continue in future years. 4
5 ACADEMIC PROGRAM REVIEW CRITERION Number 3 Internal Demand for the Program ( Maximum of ½ Page) Does the program provide services for other programs at the university? Yes, many other programs require their majors to take the introductory accounting courses (ACCT Accounting Principles I and ACCT Accounting Principles II).
