As someone who has both an accounting and an engineering degree, I agree with terenc. To get the engineering degree, I needed 5 regular semesters and 2 summer semester. All my classes were technical. I was fortunate to have a wife who made a good salary. low tuition at a state university (over 20 years ago), and classes which fell exactly into place in my schedule. And believe me, it was intense. If you start in engineering, you can change to accounting by taking classes at your local community college.
