At Fordham, I hope to take classes from a range of accounting specialties to broaden my knowledge of the field and gain the important tools needed to be an effective accountant. In particular, I look forward to taking “Financial Statement Analysis”, “International Accounting”, and “Internal Reporting and Control”, which are courses that focus on key financial statement auditing and analysis. The comprehensive core that focuses on accounting, communication, and research courses will enable me to better appreciate the intricacies of a company’s finances.
