Accounting

Learn about the accounting academic area at Darden, its faculty and its work.

Accounting influences management performance, helps managers assess strategic opportunities and fulfills management's stewardship responsibility.

The accounting curriculum is positioned at the heart of the management function and seeks balance among technical accounting rules and using accounting to highlight competitive needs and opportunities; a corporation's internal and external constituencies; evaluating the past, informing the present, and influencing the future; service and manufacturing settings; and domestic and global contexts.

The accounting curriculum is integrated with marketing, operations, strategy, finance, communications and organizational behavior courses. The accounting faculty pursues a diverse array of academic, corporate and research interests that enrich and enliven course content and classroom conversations.
