School of Business and Accounting

The demand for innovative and decisive leadership in business and accounting runs high. At the Monroe College School of Business and Accounting, we’re investing in tomorrow’s leaders by providing students with a curriculum that will drive personal and professional growth, empowering them for careers in accounting and business management.

Students taking classes within the department of accounting and finance are taught by a faculty of experienced certified accounting and taxation professionals. Our instructors provide insight into the principles of accounting, taxation, cost accounting, advanced accounting applications and accounting technology.

Students enrolled in courses offered by the department of business administration also learn from experienced senior business executives. Instructors draw upon their own career highlights to facilitate learning in marketing, project management, e-commerce and human resources. 

In addition to academics, students can gain valuable real-world experience by joining the award-winning Monroe College ENACTUS team (formally SIFE), working at the Center for Entrepreneurial Excellence or interning for a corporation. Monroe College is a proud member of the Sigma Beta Delta Honor Society, a group that promotes, recognizes and rewards scholastic achievement in business education.
