Beginning this summer, Accounting will offer its full complement of upper-division accounting courses online. Current TTU students, students from other four-year colleges or universities, or community college students who have completed 60 hours may find this online option just right for summer and beyond.

“This program is the only place to turn to in the state for online upper-division courses,” says Jon Booker, professor of Accounting. “These same courses are all offered in the classroom and bring the same quality instruction to students who have to deal with busy schedules.”

Booker says he anticipates that the program will be popular with "career changers," those who may already have a degree but want to pursue accounting as a career. Accounting has been rated as the top employment opportunity nationwide three out of the past four years.

This summer, the classes offered will allow students who attend another four-year college or university to work full-time and still take courses toward a degree. Also, community college attendees with 60 hours can advance their skills and job opportunities through the online program.

Tennessee Tech is offering these classes through the university. However, they may also count toward the undergraduate Interdisciplinary Studies degree through the Regents Online Degree Program. Prerequisites for our online accounting classes may be earned through RODP as well.
