Both programs ranked 21st among programs with comparable faculty sizes.
"Our program's appearance on the PAR ranking affirms that we are producing graduates who excel and make an impact in the profession," said Daniel Murphy, Deloitte & Touche Professor and head of the college's Department of Accounting and Information Management.
There are over 300 U.S. academic institutions (public and private) with accounting programs; approximately half are accredited.
"Our graduates recently also made a name for themselves by ranking among the top in the nation for passing all parts of the 2009 CPA examination," Murphy said. "We are fortunate to have faculty who are committed to providing students with the skills necessary for success."
