Accounting Vs Finance: Which Degree & Career is Better?

In this video, we explore the differences between a degree and a career in Accounting vs. Finance. I first define what accounting and finance are. I then discuss key differentiators in the type of coursework studied between an accounting degree vs a finance degree. I also highlight several career paths available for both finance and accounting degrees. Lastly, I compare the average salaries between those who choose a career in accounting versus those who choose a career in finance.

    If you're comparing the top finance jobs vs the top accounting jobs right out of school, your earning potential is greater in finance. However, as mentioned in the video, if you look at average pay there's not much difference

    It honestly depends on the school, career path, and what you enjoy more. I chose both because they complement each other very well. With that said, I ended up choosing to pursue careers in finance because it was more interesting to me.

    Id choose finance if I attended a top /target school and I’ll choose accounting if I go to a non target, because I’ll have a chance of landing a job after graduation 👍

    accounting is more applicable and employable at the bachelor's level. High finance people usually have MBAs from good schools.
