UC Irvine will offer minor in accounting

UC Irvine will offer an undergraduate minor in accounting starting

in fall 2004. The program will consist of courses designed to prepare

students for taking the uniform Certified Public Accounting

examination.

The school anticipates that enrollment for the new program will

start at 80 students and will expand in later years. The program was

approved Thursday by the UCI Academic Senate’s Council on Educational

Policy.

UCI students have been limited to introductory accounting courses

and must complete course work at other colleges if they wish to sit

for the Certified Public Accounting exam.
