Message from the Dean

Jenny Darroch
Farmer School of Business Dean Jenny Darroch

What a strong start to the semester it has been at Farmer! From students connecting with employers at Meet the Firms to faculty sharing their research and exploring technology in the curriculum, there is so much exciting work happening across the Department of Accountancy. Along with some pickleball! We’re especially pleased with the U.S. News & World Report’s recognition of our accountancy program, ranking No. 52 among national universities and No. 23 among national public universities in their Best Undergraduate Accounting Programs list. I’m grateful to the faculty, staff, students, alumni and professional partners whose energy makes this community so special. I look forward to all we’ll accomplish together in the months ahead.

Signed, Jenny Darroch
