WELCOME from the chair

JAMES HANSEN department chair & professor

I have the privilege of leading the School of Accounting and Taxation at Weber State University. The School of Accounting and Taxation is separately accredited by AACSB International, our national accrediting organization. Each faculty member is committed to exemplary teaching and relevant research to prepare our students to be future leaders in accounting and tax.

Our graduates have gone on to jobs in public accounting with both national and regional firms, industry, and government.  Those same graduates contribute to their communities in a robust way, having acquired an appreciation for public service through a professional education underpinned by an excellent liberal education.

The School of Accounting and Taxation offers a Master of Accounting and a Master of Taxation, consistent with the needs of our profession. We are the only university in Utah that offers a Master of Taxation. At Weber State, we value the undergraduate experience and our faculty is dedicated to providing a unique undergraduate experience that sets us apart from many of our peer and competitor institutions.  Average class size in the undergraduate curriculum of the School of Accounting and Taxation is fewer than 30 students.  Accessibility to our curriculum is exceptionally flexible, with every course offered either in the evening or on-line at least once a year.  As an open enrollment university, we embrace the mission to afford students opportunities that larger institutions often cannot accommodate. Feel free to stop by and we can discuss how our faculty can help you become a future leader in a profession with outstanding opportunities.

Welcome to the School of Accounting and Taxation at Weber State University!
