Career Outlook for Graduates

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), demand for accountants and auditors will increase by 10% between 2016 and 2026.

That number will increase since the need for qualified experts to handle complex financial and tax-related matters will continue to grow. Additionally, the demand for new tax practitioners has always been high, particularly for the Big Four accounting firms.
