    • The Department of Accounting at the E. J. Ourso College of Business strives for excellence in teaching, research, and service to the accounting profession.

    Our mission is to produce graduates at all levels that excel in their pursuits, and our accomplishments speak for themselves. The Center for Internal Auditing, housed in the accounting department, is cited as an international leader in U.S.News & World Report, and 16 internal auditing students have earned the international high score on the Certified Internal Auditor’s Exam. Over the past few years, teams of LSU accounting students have created a continuous streak by attending the PricewaterhouseCoopers’ xAct Competition finals for the fifth straight year, receiving first place twice. A key element for our success as a department is our outstanding team of faculty members. Our faculty members publish articles in top academic and professional journals, and many author textbooks and trade books. Our faculty members are also active participants in the accounting profession. [MORE]
