Accounting is the practice of gathering, analyzing, and communicating financial information, and is a crucial aspect of every business and organization. Anyone who wants to be successful in business must have a strong understanding of “the numbers", so whether you are interested in accounting specifically, or financial management in general, you should consider the Accounting major.
To pursue a career in accounting, you can follow your BCom degree with a Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) certification.
