 The accounting field offers a variety of career paths in the public and private sectors. Specializations include auditing, tax, cost accounting, financial analysis, budgeting and control. The employment outlook for accountants is excellent. Accountants possess a valuable skill that allows for professional and geographic mobility. Accounting can be a lifelong, satisfying career, or it can open the door to other options in many other fields. The profession readily accommodates the recent graduate, the trainee, as well as the more experienced accounting professional.  “My internship in the Finance Department at the Bristol Hospital gave me the real world experience I needed to enter the Accounting field. I also benefited from faculty who are working professionals — knowledge and connection in the business community were very valuable to me as I entered the workforce.” Lisa Spence, Class of 2005 Accounting | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
