The Department of Accounting's Professional Advisory Board (PAB) comprises business leaders from throughout the world. The board members are a window to the profession, with whom the department shares and exchanges information about goals, programs and changes in the business environment. The accounting faculty and PAB members join forces to improve the accounting education at Florida State, with an emphasis on undergraduate and master's programs.
The PAB meets twice a year, in the fall and the spring. Meetings involve a presentation by the college’s dean, a department update, informational talks organized by curricula/subject area and the sharing of mutual concerns about the field of accounting.
