Too cool. finally something tangible to point to besides the whole high CPA exam scores statistic that the college always brags about. Although cool, I always felt that it was misleading since the most recent scores that they pointed to were from years prior. Let's hope the undergraduate and graduate programs follow suit soon.

TAMPA, Fla. (Dec. 1, 2008) - The accounting program at the University of South Florida has landed its first ranking in Public Accounting Report’s annual assessment of the nation’s top accounting education programs. Making its debut at number 25, USF’s doctoral program was one of five doctoral programs to make the leap from unranked to ranked in the roster published by the independent newsletter of the accounting profession.

Public Accounting Report compiled its rankings by surveying more than 1,500 accounting professors and department heads and chairs who were asked to name PhD programs they had the most regard for in turning out quality accounting professors, said Stephanie Bryant, director of the School of Accountancy at USF’s College of Business.

Noting that Bay Area business leaders and hiring managers have long recognized that the most sought-after accounting new hires come from USF, Bryant said this ranking is special because it demonstrates USF’s increasing national prominence. “What makes the findings particularly gratifying is that the respondents were 1,557 accounting professors — our peers,†she said. “They recognize that many of tomorrow’s finest professors are coming from the University of South Florida.â€

Dean of the USF College of Business Robert Forsythe said the ranking is yet another testament to the high quality of education the college produces. For the past two years, the Center for Entrepreneurship’s graduate program was also nationally ranked in the top 10. “The ranking of the accountancy doctoral program by this significant publication adds to our list of national achievements,†Forsythe said. “Thanks to our hard-working faculty and staff, we are able to continue to offer students top-notch programs.â€
