California State University Fullerton’s Department of Accounting announced it has attained school status, making its School of Accountancy one of only four in the state.
The certification process began in 2019 when the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business — which accredits top business schools across the country — deemed CSUF’s program worthy of school status. The certification was approved this year.
“This is a game-changer for both Cal State Fullerton and the region,” said CSUF president Fram Virjee in a statement. “The future of Orange County has arrived with Titans leading the way in preparing students to be cutting-edge, culturally agile and workforce ready.”
CSUF's School of Accountancy currently has more than 1,000 accounting majors enrolled, which the university says is "one of the largest undergraduate accounting programs in the nation."
“Our forward-looking curriculum trains the workforce of tomorrow and is an engine in driving business growth in Orange County,” said Sridhar Sundaram, dean of CSUF's College of Business and Economics in a statement. “Over the past few years, technology and analytics have revolutionized the accounting industry. We will keep evolving our program so that our students are equipped to be leaders in the field.”
