Bachelor of Science Degree - Professional Studies Major

Concentration in Accounting

Oklahoma City University, through its School of Adult & Continuing Education in conjunction with the Meinders School of Business, is proud to introduce its newest degree program—the B.S. in Professional Studies with a Concentration in Accounting. Designed for students who desire a more focused degree than is offered by typical programs in General Business, the 30 credit hours of accounting courses are taught exclusively by faculty from Oklahoma City University’s Meinders School of Business.

The professional studies major with concentration in accounting totals 39 credit hours. Fifteen hours of professional studies major requirements, six hours of which are accounting courses, are supplemented by an additional 24 upper-division hours of accounting courses. Students must complete the School of Adult & Continuing Education’s general education program and additional elective hours may be required to complete the minimum 124 credit hours required for graduation.

This degree meets all course requirements for admission to Oklahoma City University’s Master of Science in Accounting degree program.
