Christopher ’s Answer

It all depends on what your goals and interests are. An accounting degree would always be in demand. You would be studying how to manage the books and records of a company and/or individual. It generally is a stable job because accounting is a necessary function.


A finance degree would focus more on financial markets and investments. A career here is probably less stable but potentially more lucrative.

Lauren’s Answer

I agree that choice should align with your passions. I have found that folks that study accounting can work in accounting or finance, whereas a folks that study finance often dont have the skillset required to work in accounting.
