Baruch Accounting Society Today, the Accounting Society is open to all students.

The Accounting Society was established at Baruch College (CUNY) in 1968 with the main purpose of preparing a diverse group of business students for the Accounting, Tax, Audit, and CIS professions. The Baruch Accounting Society introduces students to the various opportunities in the accounting, finance and related fields. These opportunities range from available internships, full-time positions, networking exposures, experienced speakers to professional character building. Prospective members and inducted members attend a variety of club meetings, corporate presentations, and career building workshops to network with professionals, alumni and fellow students in an effort to improve their “soft” skills and industry knowledge. In addition, inducted members will have the foremost opportunity to attend events that have a limited number of attendees such as company office visits, networking events and one-on-one professional resume reviews. Furthermore, the Accounting Society helps students give back to the community through the various volunteer actions and leadership opportunities and dedications.
