Mission Statement

 The DeGroote Accounting Association (DAA) is a student run organization within the DeGroote School of Business whose main focus is to promote and generate awareness of the accounting profession to the McMaster community. We represent those students who are interested in pursuing an accounting designation, whether it be CA, CMA, CGA or CPA. In addition to creating awareness on campus, we facilitate student transitions into the professional accounting world.

As the popularity of the accounting profession continues to grow, so does the importance of the DAA as a channel for organizations to interact with the leaders of tomorrow.

Objectives

• Increase the awareness and knowledge of the accounting profession on campus.
• Assist students with accounting theories and applications through the Accounting Mentorship Program (AMP).
• Facilitate communication between the DeGroote student body and industry professionals.
• Help students improve their skills and abilities in networking with potential employers.
