COLLEGE OF BUSINESS
DEPARTMENT OF ACCOUNTING

The mission of the Department of Accounting is to offer graduate and undergraduate accounting programs of high quality, which meet the needs of the students preparing for professional careers in accounting. This mission includes providing a broad-based education as well as education in current business and accounting topics. The department is responsive to the needs of employers and other constituents of its programs. The department is also alert to the current issues in the local, regional, and national environment, and plans and implements changes in the educational process to respond to those issues when needed. The faculty of the accounting programs assist in accomplishing this mission through a planned integration of their teaching, intellectual, and service contribution. Top

The Department of Accounting offers the opportunity for certain of its outstanding students to achieve the designation of Honors in Major and provides the opportunity for advanced study under close faculty supervision.

Selection for honors designation is based on the student's academic performance and recommendation by the Department Undergraduate Program Committee (UPC) in consultation with the faculty of the student's major discipline. To be eligible for the designation, students must have a minimum overall grade point average of 3.0 at UTSA and a minimum grade point average of 3.5 in their major. To enroll in honors thesis courses and to graduate with the honors designation, these minimum grade point averages must be maintained. Students applying for Honors in Major are expected to enroll in the appropriate honors thesis course during the final two semesters. The completed thesis must be approved by the supervising faculty sponsor from the student's discipline and the UPC. Students interested in this program should contact the UPC through the Department of Accounting office for additional information. Department honors can be attained independent of or in addition to University Honors. Top
