The Accounting Society of UCR was first established at the University of California, Riverside, in 1985. As one of the longest lasting organizations on campus, the Accounting Society takes pride in assisting its members to prepare for the real world in the accounting profession. The Accounting Society of UCR serves as the student’s link to the Career Center, the Gary Anderson Graduate School of Management, the Alumni Association, and numerous accounting firms - ranging from the “Big 4” accounting firms to midsize and smaller firms all the way to businesses that provide CPA review courses. The Accounting Society has been extremely successful in giving its members the resources they need to make an educated decision about their career path within accounting. We have also been very successful in giving our members great exposure to the firms of their choice, offering our members unique networking opportunities that will give them a tremendous advantage over other accounting students when interviewing for an accounting position. Another great opportunity present to our members is the participation in the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program. This program enables Accounting Society members to gain experience and become certified to prepare the community's income taxes. The Accounting Society of UCR is proud to support a program that encourages personal growth and community service. This year's executive board takes pride in maintaining all of its resources and is happy to serve you! |
