QUESTION 1 OF 30

Why do you want a career as an accounting professor?

This question is a chance to discuss why you like teaching. To answer this question, describe your passion, your skills, and why you think you'd be a good fit. This is also a chance to discuss not only your strengths but your interest in teaching. Discuss why you became a professor such as having a passion for learning, an ability to reach multiple people through communication, or an interest in spreading knowledge about accounting.

"I want to work as an accounting professor because, while I have an interest in accounting, I also have a passion and interest in teaching. While teaching a few seminars over the last few years, I started thinking about how much my education has benefited me. I want to be able to teach others in a traditional classroom environment. I also know that my communication skills would be useful in this role."
