PROGRAMS of STUDY ACCOUNTING and FINANCE Olson, Fitzgibbons, O’Brien, Peters, Willis Lower-Level (100-200) Courses in the Department Are Open to All Students PROGRAMS OF STUDY ACCOUNTING AND FINANCE Olson, Fitzgibbons, O’Brien, Peters, Willis Lower-level (100-200) courses in the department are open to all students. Upper-level (300-400) courses in the department are open to students not major- ing in accounting, finance, or minoring in risk management with consent of the department head; a small percentage of seats in each class is reserved to accommodate such students, but such students should follow the department’s closed course petitioning process. However, students not majoring in account- ing, finance, or minoring in risk management may take only one upper- level course in the department unless required to do so by a major outside the Department of Accounting and Finance, or unless they receive permission from the department head. The major in accounting meets the accounting requirements for taking the Certified Public Accountant Examination in Illinois and provides excel- lent preparation for entry into field of public accounting and the practice of accounting in industry or government. To sit for the CPA exam in Illinois, cur- rent law requires students to have completed at least 37.5 course units or the equivalent of 150 semester hours. It may be possible for students to complete these requirements in four years at IWU. Contact the department head for details. See more at http://www.iwu.edu/accounting/. The major in finance prepares students for entry-level positions in the field of finance, investments, and risk management. It also helps students develop the skills necessary to adapt to a changing and increasingly complex world. The study of finance is concerned with all of the following: management of money, investments, financial institutions, and analytical preparation for careers in a wide variety of profit-seeking business and not-for-profit agencies. See more at http://www.iwu.edu/finance/. The increasingly quantitative character of modern business practice suggests that students elect additional mathematics beyond that required for the major, and students considering graduate work in business should take at least one semester of undergraduate calculus. For many students, one or more computer science course may be appropriate. See the Computer Science section of this Catalog for course offerings. Students seeking to matriculate into a major in accounting or finance should complete the following six courses by the end of their sophomore year: (1) Gateway Colloquium; (2) Mathematics 110, 176, or university credit for AP Calculus; (3) Economics 100: Introduction to Economics; (4) Economics 227: Statistics for Business and Economics; (5) Accounting 112: Accounting for Decision Making 1; and (6) Accounting 212: Accounting for Decision Making II. A grade of C- or higher must be earned in each of these courses. In addition, a student’s cumulative GPA in these six courses must equal or exceed 2.50. No student wishing to major in accounting or finance will be permitted to enroll in any upper-level course in the department, except Business Law I, prior to meeting these requirements. 133 Accounting and Finance A course included in one major may not be used to fulfill requirements of another major or minor. Upper level (300-400) courses taken at another college or university at the freshman/sophomore level may not be used to satisfy major or minor requirements, absent department head approval. Major Sequence in Accounting: A minimum of 11 course units, to include: 1) ACC 112, 212, 218, 315, 316, 317, 318, 319, BUS 331 or 341, 355, and FIS 303 Other courses outside the department that accounting majors are required to complete: 1) Mathematics 110, 176, or university credit for AP Calculus 2) Economics 100 3) Economics 227 Accounting majors may count no more than 2 non-required BUS courses toward the 18 courses outside their major department. Major Sequence in Finance: A minimum of 12 course units, to include 1) ACC 112, 212, BUS 331, 341, 355, 490, FIS 200, 303, and 309 2) Three course units from ECON 311, 352, FIS 300, 304, 307, 370, 408, 409, and 455 Other courses outside the department that finance majors are required to com- plete: 1) Mathematics 110, 176, or university credit for AP Calculus 2) Economics 100 3) Economics 227 Finance majors may count no more than 2 non-required BUS courses toward the 18 courses outside their major department. Minor Sequence in Finance: The minor in Finance is designed for students who are in disciplines other than Accounting, Business Administration, Finance, International Business, or Marketing. It offers students in non-business fields an opportunity to complement their major with the study of various finance topics. The Finance minor helps students create value in any type of business, non-profit, or government organization. The minor will broaden a student’s learning experiences and professional opportunities by providing training in financial topics and analysis. A minimum of six courses to include: 1) ACCT 112: Accounting for Decision Making I FIS 303: Financial Management ECON 227: Statistics for Business and Economics 2) Three additional courses selected from the following list: FIS 305: Financial Statement Analysis FIS 309: Investments FIS 409: Portfolio Management FIS 370: Special Topics in Finance (may be repeated for different topics) FIS 304: Risk Management/Property-Liability 134 Accounting and Finance FIS 307: Life/Health/Social Insurance FIS 300: Seminar in Finance (may be repeated for different topics) Minor Sequence in Finance for Accounting majors: The minor in Finance for Accounting majors is designed specifically for students majoring in accounting.

It is assumed that students in this class do not have a great deal of practice with biology and that any prior experience is likely to be several years ago. Biol 101 students are expected to take a very active role in their learning by completing readings and homework before class, coming to class ready to participate directly with peers and through in-class technology, and reviewing routinely for quizzes and exams. In this highly-structured course, we have evidence that every student can achieve if they are motivated to be an active learner! OFFICE HOURS: Don’t feel intimidated if you’ve never been to a professor’s office hours. You can come alone or sign-up with a friend. You can come in to talk about the course, study skills, mental health issues, your background, you career, advice for future courses to take, etc. I’m a Carolina First advocate, safe-zone trained (LBGTQ), have mental health first aid training, and I’m an advocate for Covenant students, Chancellor Science Scholars, transfer students, international students, continuing education students, underrepresented minority students, first year students, sophomores, students with silent and physical disabilities, students that require oxygen…ANY student! DID YOU KNOW? Asking for help is a sign of strength and self-care! Please ask for help early and often! Small problems are easier to cope with than escalated issues, please do not wait until the end of the semester to ask for help.

In this course you will use evolutionary theories to examine topics often covered in cultural anthropology, psychology, and sociology courses, including human sexuality, male-female relations, reciprocity and cooperation, parent-child relations, kinship and the family, risk-taking and aggression, and human health and survival. Evolutionary theories often do not focus only on humans, so you will utilize cross-species as well as cross-cultural data to evaluate the validity of the theories. In this course you will learn to use a holistic and integrated approach to understanding human behavior, focusing on three evolutionary approaches—evolutionary psychology, human behavioral ecology, and evolutionary cultural anthropology.
