The program has been an extremely beneficial experience for my professional career at PwC. The program also gave me a great chance to connect with the vast Lehigh accounting alumni network, which as a very strong presence at many firms and in many cities.

"I found the Accounting program at Lehigh to be challenging, rigorous, and integral to my success in the accounting profession. Having left the military, I entered the program with no prior accounting or business experience and within two years, graduated from the program confident in the mechanics of accounting, as well as broader issues impacting the profession. The faculty are experts in their field and outstanding mentors, and the curriculum left my classmates and I well prepared to succeed on the CPA exam. I've found my accounting career- both in public accounting and now in the private sector- to be extremely rewarding and I credit Lehigh for providing a strong foundation."

“I saw the Accounting program at Lehigh University as an opportunity to further my education and getting a jump start to passing the CPA exam before starting my career at Deloitte. This program prepared me for a career in public accounting as I found the program set a strong foundation. I took the CPA review course in the spring semester of the program and passed all 4 parts of the exam (on the first try) two months into my first year at work. The Master’s program has been a boost to my resume and has provided hands on preparation for a career in public accounting that was in line with how the business world works.”
