The purpose of this homepage is to acquaint interested persons
with the programs, students, and faculty within the Department of
Accounting at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU).
The accounting programs are accredited by The Association to Advance
Collegiate Schools of Business(AACSB), the sole peer accrediting
agency for baccalaureate, master's and accounting programs in business
schools. VCU was among the first 24 colleges and universities in
the United States to have programs accredited by the AACSB at all
of these levels and is the largest business school in the state.
The future development of the accounting profession depends upon
the quality of the educational foundation on which it rests. The
Department at VCU is committed to the support of professional accounting
through the delivery of educational experiences directed toward
practice, and through research that addresses the important policy
issues of the day. We believe that professional background and achievements
of the faculty documented in these pages provide a solid foundation
required for the profession. We also wish to acknowledge the invaluable
contribution of the Department of Accounting Advisory Council.
Sincerely,
Edward N. Coffman
Professor and Chair
Department of Accounting
