Accountancy

Highlights

The accountancy degree program at Lewis University offers students a number of advantages not found at many schools. Class size in the accounting major are kept small with fewer than 30 students in most classes, allowing student-teacher interaction and personalized attention.

Classes within the accountancy program are taught by full-time faculty rather than student assistants, and focus on teaching from a practical, hands-on perspective. This practitioner-oriented approach to accounting provides students with exposure to the skills they will need on the job. The accountancy program also offers both day and evening programs, to meet the needs of traditional students and those who are working full-time.

Business ethics are an integral part of Lewis University’s Mission. The Mission values of wisdom and justice are particularly important. Wisdom focuses on the ability to reflect and make moral decisions throughout life, and justice promotes personal and social responsibility. Those values are incorporated into the accounting curriculum.
