Still #1, Six Years and Counting

 

Eleven of the 25 largest accounting firms in the Baltimore area are headed by graduates of the University of Baltimore's Merrick School of Business and the UB School of Law—repeating yet again the University's rank as the single largest producer of top-level managerial accounting talent for area firms. The results were announced in the Baltimore Business Journal's 2013 Book of Lists.
