The accounting and advisory services minor is aimed at nonbusiness students who wish to complement their current studies with a focus in accounting and advisory services. Accounting knowledge is the foundation for business decision makers to make sound judgments and support the operational and strategic decisions in a firm. Importantly, public accounting firms are hiring students from nonaccounting disciplines for their advisory services practices. These students work in interdisciplinary areas including mergers and acquisitions, risk management, operations, data analytics, and digital transformation where accounting knowledge from this minor will provide them with a competitive advantage. Students pursuing the minor may select among accounting courses that explore topics such as financial reporting, advisory services and emerging accounting systems, strategic cost analysis, and tax planning. Students can also choose courses from other disciplines that would benefit from accounting knowledge such as engineering, computer science, and healthcare.

Complete all courses listed below unless otherwise indicated. Also complete any corequisite labs, recitations, clinicals, or tools courses where specified. The accounting and advisory services minor is not open to D'Amore-McKim students or students pursuing a combined major with the D'Amore-McKim School of Business.
