About the Program/Learning Objectives

Join the Stan Ross Department of Accountancy as we welcome Vernon J. Richardson, professor of Accounting and the G. William Glezen Distinguished Chair of Accounting at the Sam M. Walton College of Business at the University of Arkansas. While the mounds of data proliferate and the capabilities of machines increasingly do much of the accounting work, the role of the accountant is changing, potentially in a dramatic way.  At the same time, accounting curricula have barely changed over the past thirty years. In this talk, Professor Richardson will discuss ways for data analytics to saturate each course in the accounting curricula, using experiential data analytics to help develop higher order skills to sustain a competitive advantage over machines and others that might work to dis intermediate the accounting role.

The Emanuel Saxe Distinguished Lectures in Accounting are given as a public service by Baruch College of the City University of New York under the auspices of the Baruch College Fund and the Stan Ross Department of Accountancy. The lectures were established to honor Emanuel Saxe, Dean and Professor Emeritus at Baruch College, formerly Morton Wollman Distinguished Professor of Accountancy and University Distinguished Professor (for more information on Professor Saxe's life and career at Baruch College, see the Saxe Biographical Page).

One hour of CPE in Accounting is available for attending this lecture.
