Hello! My name is Emilee Schultz and I am an Academic Advisor and the Transfer Coordinator for the Lubar School of Business at UW-Milwaukee. I work closely with prospective transfer students who want to complete our Bachelor of Business Administration degree at UWM.
A BBA degree in Accounting from the UWM Lubar School positions you for a career in public accounting, corporate accounting, or non-profit or governmental accounting. The UWM Lubar School is the leader in providing accounting graduates to international public accounting firms and major corporations headquartered in Wisconsin.
From the Director of Accounting Programs, Paul Fischer, “The Lubar School has been the primary source of accounting talent in southeast Wisconsin for over 60 years, providing outstanding degree programs, meaningful experiential opportunities for students, a strong faculty commitment to teaching, and close relationships with accounting firms and businesses in our region.
Recognized for rigor and relevance, our program is respected for our highly-qualified and well-prepared graduates who contribute as CPAs and accounting professionals in businesses throughout Wisconsin and beyond.”
With a strong combination of professional and academic experience, the accounting, taxation, and business law faculty at the Lubar School are well known for their commitment to helping students succeed in their studies and preparing them for the accounting profession. The practice of accounting is ever-changing. To stay on top of new developments, Lubar accounting faculty are CPA-certified in the profession and closely connected with public and corporate accounting professionals. As PhD-qualified faculty, they also collaborate with other research scholars on current topics in financial accounting, managerial accounting, non-profit accounting, auditing, individual and corporate taxation, business law, and corporate governance.
