<p>Hello. I'm a freshmen undergraduate (technically, as I would actually be a sophomore if my community college credits fully transferred) at the University of Idaho currently enrolled in the Business Information Systems program here. I'm currently taking the introduction accounting class (I had taken a different intro class in community college which didn't transfer) and I'm glad to say I don't hate it and actually enjoy a lot of it. </p>
<p>To make a long story short, I'm seriously considering majoring in accounting. I am very attracted to the job security and wages, and I enjoy working with budgets and the like. In addition, I am quite good with computers and love technology. I'm not skilled or in any real way proficient at programming, nor am I particularly interested in programming. I just have a "knack" for computers I suppose (I'd say at this point I could easily just go and get the A+ without study if that demonstrates what I mean).</p>
<p>I'd like to get all my 150 hours out of the way while I'm in the swing of school instead of later.</p>
<p>Fortunately, the business program here is very integrated and a double major in IS and Accounting would require only one extra year. </p>
<p>Similarly, however, the Master's in Accountancy should also only take an extra year after undergraduate study. This program does not require a Bachelor's in accounting.</p>
<p>My question is, which would be more beneficial to me? Given my inclination towards a career working with computers, would it be worth it to double major in IS and accounting, or would a simple major in accounting OR information systems mixed with a Master's in Accountancy be better?</p>
<p>If it helps here are links to the curriculum planning worksheets for IS and Accounting:</p>
<p>Just thought I'd get some other opinions as I plan out my future academic career. Thanks in advance! Let me know what extra info you need, if any.</p>
