Three academic majors are offered: Business Economics, Professional Accounting,and Economics. The Professional Accounting major is a 150-hour program registered with the New York State Education Department as meeting CPA curriculum requirements.

The Division of Economics and Business is recognized for the excellence
of its undergraduate business, accounting, and economics programs among
those offered by public and private four-year comprehensive colleges
in New York State and the region. Many of the most successful alumni
of the College at Oneonta graduated with a major from the Economics and
Business Division. From corporate executives to accounting practitioners
to economic forecasters to not-for-profit managers to academicians and
even an astronaut (Ronald Garan), they attest to the caliber of their academic preparation
and provide a conduit to current students for internships and career
placement.
 Get to where you want to go by choosing programs designed for students
to acquire the general knowledge that will prepare them for positions
in the fields of business, economics, or accounting, or for graduate
study. Become part of the learning environment of small classes,
accessible faculty, teamwork, and simulations in technology-enhanced
classrooms. The Division faculty is highly qualified and ready to
apply its blend of academic credentials and professional background to
a transformational college experience. Get started by perusing this website
