An accounting degree designed for the changing business world.
Program Overview
Customize your education and career path
At Sheridan, you'll build a foundation of essential business learning in your first two years of study. In your final two years, specific accounting degree courses teach the advanced skills needed to become a CPA or work in accounting and finance. Become a well-rounded graduate with a specialized skillset that helps you thrive in a wide variety of roles and organizations.
Learn accounting from industry insiders
Our accounting professors combine years of industry experience, academic knowledge and the latest hands-on learning strategies to create an educational blueprint that keeps pace with the changing field. They use innovative teaching methods that let you master basic concepts independently, while prioritizing complex topics in class. It's higher thinking through hands-on guidance.
Collaborative and hands-on learning
Today's work world has changed. Top employability skills now include creative and critical thinking, collaboration across networks, leading by influence, communication and entrepreneurship. Our small class sizes and experiential learning approach promote the development of these skills through constant interaction with professors and peers.
Gain real-world work experience before graduation
In the accounting program, you'll have the benefit of completing a mandatory work term as part of your business degree. This provides valuable work experience and allows you to practice and finesse skills and concepts learned in class. You may also participate in an optional co-op program to further boost your experience and résumé before graduation.
Accounting degree courses recognized by the CPA
Sheridan's 120-credit-hour bachelor of accounting degree meets the Chartered Professional Accountants (CPA) requirement for entry into the CPA Professional Education Program (PEP).
If you graduate from Sheridan's BBA accounting program and meet all of the CPA's minimum grade requirements, you could qualify for exemption from the CPA Preparatory courses (PREP) and receive entry into the CPA PEP.
Learn more about Sheridan BBA course PREP exemptions.
Learn more about CPA Harmonized Education Policies.
In order to obtain a CPA designation, you must meet the CPA's entrance requirements and complete the CPA PEP. CPA designations are solely conferred by the CPA.
Critical Employability and 21st Century Skills
The Honours BBA programs were designed to ensure graduates acquire the ability to apply a range of business frameworks, critical employability and 21st century skills to better prepare them to meaningfully contribute and add value to the organizations and communities they serve. With this in mind you will complete 3 required courses: Becoming a Master Learner – an introductory course designed to provide you with the tools and strategies to help you succeed, Undergraduate Competency Development – designed to develop your skill sets around the key Competencies required to achieve success in business and society and BBA Portfolio – create a career-ready showcase e-portfolio that chronicles your development of the BBA Undergrad Competencies.
