Richard A.Young -- The Ohio State University

You have reached the BUSINESS section of my homepage. I also have a SOCCER section, which contains lots of stuff about "The Beautiful Game."

I am currently the Director of the Ohio State Accounting Honors Program. Please E-mail me if you have questions about Accounting Honors. I am also the Faculty Adviser for Beta Alpha Psi . I highly recommend that Accounting majors pledge and become active members. Below you can find photos of the current Honors Accounting students.

If you have questions about our highly regarded Masters of Accounting (MAcc) Program please contact the MAcc co-directors, Professor Dan Jensen or Rob Chabot or consult the MAcc website. Many of our Honors Accounting students enter the "Combined Program", which generally makes it possible to earn both a Bachelors and Masters degree in Accounting in less than five years.

In Winter, I will be teaching AMIS H212, which is the second course in the Accounting Honors Program.

If you are interested in accounting and management information systems research, you are cordially invited to attend the Thomas J. Burns Colloquium, which normally meets every Friday from 10:30-Noon.

I am the Editor of Journal of Management Accounting Research for 2008-2010. We have an excellent Editorial Board and group of Associate Editors and promise an open, constructive and speedy review process.

Sometimes one can get considerable inspiration from famous scholars:
"What advantage does he derive from the system of bookkeeping by double-entry!  It is among the finest inventions of the human mind."
 
"On the afternoon of the Nobel announcement, Nash said that he had won for game theory and that he felt that game theory was like string theory, a subject of great intrinsic intellectual interest that the world wishes to imagine can be of some utility. He said it with enough skepticism in his voice to make it funny."
--  Johann von Goethe (1824)
 
--  "A Beautiful Mind: A Biography of John Forbes Nash, Jr." (1998)
