...UI 100 Dr. Christ McGowan 4 November 2013 Accounting At Southeast Missouri State University, I want to pursue my degree in the field of accounting. After completing the “Choose a Major” project, it made me realize even more that accounting was indeed the right career for me. I learned a great deal during this project and the project also made me think of what I would like to do in my future after college. In the accounting program, I will be able to do it, it will benefit me after graduation, and it will please me. During my high school years, I had to make a decision on what major I wanted to pursue in college. I chose to go into accounting at Southeast Missouri State. Before making that commitment, I spent quite a lot of time deciding if I thought that this was the right major for me. Many people I know in my home town majored in accounting. Some had bachelor degrees and some had master degrees. I asked many of them what I should focus on to be successful in the accounting field. They each told me to always be a stickler for details, always do well in your math classes and be very knowledgeable with your computer programs. Also, very key to an accounting position is to have excellent communication skills. They also said it would be a challenging major and to work hard and never give up. After getting all of their input, I knew I could do it. I have always been someone that has determination and does not like to fail. I will work harder at something if I realize...

...about it?” mother asked for my answers after elaborating an accounting phenomenon. In the beginning, I would seek for suitable answers quickly, but in many instances, I cannot provide satisfactory answers in that it was beyond my comprehension at that time. Then, my mother, a senior auditor, expounded it clearly with in-depth accounting expertise. It can be said without exaggeration that mother is my idol. Through case-based learning, I got a general understanding of accounting and came to apprehend accounting plays indispensable and significant roles in corporations’ development. Offering actual accounting statements with effective verification systems could cut down corporations’ expenditures and prevent deceptive accounting behaviors in accounting market.

Statement of objective: After more than 6 year's full time work experience in the field of accounting with various reputed firms like XYZ, ABC, PQR and a little over 2 years of volunteering experience with a CPA firm in accounting, I want to return to academic study and undertake graduate studies in masters of accountancy to broaden my scope in this field.

...Intermediate accounting 1 paper Kari Andrew 11/15/13 There are many different accounting specialties cost accounting, managerial accounting, financial governmental accounting, tax accounting, and many more. Right now I am currently an accounting major as well as business marketing major. Accounting was never my first choice; however when I had taken it in high school I found a small interest in it. Math was always my strongest subject in school and I have also always been well with dealing with money. While taking accounting I learned there is way more to it than just numbers and money. This is just like there are more accounting specialties than I had thought. I am currently 22 years old so what I want to do with my life is still a huge mystery. There are three accounting specialties that have sparked my interest these specialties are accounting clerk, international accounting, and tax accounting. All three of these jobs I have recently learned about and started researching so in my paper I would like to explain to you why these three jobs have caught my attention. The first accounting specialty that I had an interest in is an accounting clerk. The main reason behind this is because I always wanted to work in a bank. Ever since I was about 16 money has always been an interest of mine counting it, managing it, or just dealing with it in general. An accounting clerk is someone who will do all the data entry. They provide bookkeeping and accounting support for their company...

...did do. The point of setting a goal is to achieve a desired result, and work as hard as you have to, to achieve it. By doing this at your internship you will grow as a person and learn things you usually will not learn in a classroom setting. In my current internship my goal is to learn more about the “Real World.” I am an accounting major and I have spent most of my time learning about accounting from a desk. In the classroom most of what we discuss is conceptual, it is not real, but often what is referenced could be. From my internship I hope to take what I have learned and apply it to a real scenario. I want the “Real World” to be a real thing, not a distant concept. By bringing the “Real World” to real life my goal is to learn new skills and business practices. I want to learn what it is like to be an account from day to day. I want to know if it is really something I want to do for the next 30 plus years. I want to see how real professionals conduct themselves at work, and learn to do the same. I want to see the accounting process in action, what’s it really like. This internship will help me learn what I want to, and it will prepare me for my future career. Learning how to work and behave at my internship in a business environment...

...considering is accounting. I decided I wanted to do accounting back when one of my cousins became an accountant. She ended up getting her CPA and a full time job at the place she interned at, which ultimately made me want to do the same. One path I thought about taking with this major is to be a forensic accountant. Before I became an accounting major, I was a criminal justice major, so getting into forensic accounting is something that I am very interested in. With this career, I would try and detect crimes, such as fraud, and would have the opportunity to work for government agencies or law firms. Being a forensic accountant is probably my first choice. Another field that I would be interested in is being a...

I have been an active member since then and became BAP Membership chair spring of 2011. Becoming BAP membership chair is a privilege to me because I get to be the “welcoming person” to our organization. I am a good candidate for this position because I am friendly and very easy to get along with. Being a part of BAP is a wonderful experience. This organization creates many networking opportunities and great friendships as well. The Accounting Association and Beta Alpha Psi are a great part of the college experience and I am exceptionally glad that I decided to join. Hopefully I am having that same affect on other students who are pledging BAP. It makes college much more fun and beneficial having friends who are also in the same class. I am glad I became an active member of BAP and hope to branch this success off to others.
