Accounting

The Accounting Program will provide you with strong preparation in accounting and business. We will help you prepare for the many opportunities in entry-level positions in the accounting field.. A large percentage of our students do choose to continue their education at four- year colleges in order to become certified public accountants (CPA). CPA’s can start practices or work in public, private, not- for- profit or government accounting. Upon completion of the Accounting Program requirements, the Associates of Applied Science (A.A.S.) degree is awarded.

Weekend Accounting Program

In addition to our regular program, BMCC offers an Associate of Applied Science (A.A.S.) in Accounting in BMCC’s evening/weekend program. You can complete your degree requirements by attending classes exclusively on Friday evening and on Saturday and Sunday. All courses required for an A. A. S. Degree in Accounting can be taken in the weekend program.

Apprenticeship Programs

Our apprenticeship programs allow Incoming BMCC business and accounting students to work for a leading international company while going to school. You gain professional experience while pursuing your degree. The company pays for your tuition, books and school fees–plus you earn a salary.
