Research
Research is an essential part of each faculty member's work. The Department of Accounting's research mission calls for a sustained output of published research in professional journals and other scholarly activities that achieves a national scholarly reputation among other academic institutions, professional groups, and business organizations.
The department also provides a supervisory role with students who undertake research. Graduate students have the opportunity to engage in research through both the MSA Program, with its optional thesis, the MBA program, and/or the PhD program in Economics. Undergraduates have the opportunities to engage in research through the UROP (Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program) and/or the University's Honors program.
The department supports a wide range of research interests and, as such, is subscribed to several databases through Wharton Research Data Services (WRDS) and other sources. (WRDS is a password-protected interface that allows access to various databases. Access to the system is available to ALL faculty, staff, and students of the Whittemore School.)
