Texas Tech’s Rawls College of Business will become only the second school in Texas to have its own accounting school.
The accounting program includes nearly 500 graduate and undergraduate students, most of them enrolled in a five-year program leading to an M.S. degree. On Aug. 15, it will become the School of Accounting, one of only about 40 such schools in the nation—and the first in Texas—with separate accreditation in accounting from the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB), says Robert Ricketts, the school’s director.
