Impact
The mission of the Kramer School of Accountancy is to prepare students for careers in professional accounting and for licensure as Certified Public Accountants. This preparation is to be realized through a broad-based, liberal arts education consistent with the values characteristic of Jesuit higher education and congruent with the missions of the University and the Boler College of Business to develop the student as a total person. To meet its mission, the department offers the M.B.A. with a concentration in Accountancy. Scholarships, made possible by alumni endowment donations, are available to all qualified students.
To achieve its mission, the School of Accountancy mandates its faculty to:
- Demonstrate quality in the classroom through teaching that stresses rigor, discipline, method, and high standards.
- Make intellectual contributions; maintain currency with regard to professional practice; pursue professional interactions; and serve campus, community, professional, and academic organizations.
- Promote active faculty-student rapport through student advising, mentoring, and career guidance.
- Recognize ever-changing business conditions by exposing students to aspects of global business, information technology, and the application of professional ethics/morals, as well as instilling technical competence and analytical skills.
Note: A 2019 gift from Christine M. and Richard J. Kramer (1986 Accountancy graduates of John Carroll) established the Kramer School of Accountancy and Information Sciences.

Kramer School Of Accountancy And Information Sciences
The Kramer School of Accountancy and Information Sciences positions Boler College, and its faculty and graduates to lead in these key areas:
Data & Sustainability
Accountancy has always shaped business destinies. The rise of data analytics, automation, predictive analysis, more precise risk management tools, sustainability metrics and other changes — technological and societal — require accountants to play an even more pivotal role.
Business Relevance
Accounting, like engineering, law and medicine, must coalesce research, education and professional development around relevant practice issues. Only then can we spur timely research and accelerate solutions to complex, real-world practice challenges.
Globalization
As global business ties become more complex, Boler students and alumni will need a new kind of literacy — regulatory, technical and cultural — to reconcile different business practices, geographies and regulations.
