Curious about the differences between accounting and finance majors? In this episode of Compare Mode, students Andrea Nunez (Questrom ’26) and Sophia Chabris (Questrom ’26) reveal what sets finance vs accounting apart—including key courses, major skills, math requirements, and career options. If you’re deciding between the two degrees, this video covers what accountants and finance professionals actually do, and which skills matter most.
Both of these programs at BU are housed within our Questrom School of Business.
