TN Tech Accounting Department

TN Tech Accounting Department Welcome to the Department of Accounting at Tennessee Technological University in Cookeville, Tennessee. Please "LIKE" our page!

The mission of the Department of Accounting is to prepare students for entry level positions in accounting and business careers and to enhance opportunities for our students to become successful and ethical professionals. Per national surveys of the past several years conducted by the National Association of Colleges and Employers, accounting has been the most in-demand university degree nationwid

e. At TTU, the Accounting Major has among the highest in terms of the number of available on-campus job interviews for its students. The accounting program is characterized by professionally-qualified instructors and high-quality, rigorous classes. Frequent extra-curricular activities provide students with direct access to a wide variety of practicing professionals. Our stakeholders include employers such as international accounting firms, healthcare providers, business & industry, and government. Every Fall, accounting employers converge on TTU's campus for our annual Meet-the-Firms event. This annual event provides an excellent opportunity for networking and often results in jobs and internships for our accounting students. Nationally, employers generally pay premium salaries to top accounting students and TTU is no exception. Currently, the Department's top accounting graduates start at salaries in the 55k range. The Accounting Department has a highly successful internship program. Every year via placement with employers, students participating in the department's internship program receive real-world exposure to the accounting workplace. The Department's online program is geared to assist students needing academic accounting credit to sit for the CPA Exam or to prepare them to pursue graduate-level studies in accounting. If you are interested in changing careers or want to acquire new skills for your current job, our online courses are an ideal vehicle to transition to an accounting career. Each year eight to ten (8-10) upper-division accounting courses are offered 100% online. The Department also offers a Masters of Accountancy. This 30-hour program is delivered primarily through an interactive online format, but includes two weekend residencies and students are required to take the CPA Exam prior to graduation.

TTU Acct students are on their trip to London U.K. The trip got off to a rocky start with their flight from NY to London being cancelled on Friday night, forcing a stay in NYC on Saturday. However, ever the flexible travelers, they took the opportunity to visit sites like Wall Street and Manhattan. Landing in London on Sunday morning, the group has already visited Buckingham Palace, the Tower of London, and Lloyd's of London!

More to come....

November is the Tennessee Society of CPA's Accounting Opportunities Month (AOM), where professionals go to local schools to promote accounting as a career option. This year, I again took four great accounting majors (Koryn Howard, Augusta Long, Ethan McWilliams, and Ian Prater) to Cookeville High School. They did a great job representing Tennessee Tech and the accounting profession. The students in the audience asked great questions, and we all had a good time. Hopefully, we will see some of these students become future CPAs!
