ACCOUNTING COURSES FOR ALL STUDENTS
Many successful businessmen and women attribute at least part of their success to an understanding of accounting, “the language of business.” Business schools at baccalaureate institutions require their students to complete a full year of accounting. As such, all transfer students planning careers in accounting, finance, human relations, marketing, management or sales should take Financial Accounting (ACCOU 1140) and Managerial Accounting (ACCOU 1150) at College of DuPage before transferring to a baccalaureate business program.
This accounting sequence (ACCOU 1140 and 1150) is also an appropriate choice for students planning to operate their own businesses at some point in the future, even if their current plans do not include a transfer to a business program at a baccalaureate institution.
