Research on the Adaptability of Applied Talent Training in Accounting Major in Colleges and Universities to Industry Demand

Abstract

This paper analyzes the evolving competency demands of the accounting industry and examines the misalignment in higher education's talent development across four dimensions: strategic goal-setting, curriculum design, faculty development, and practical training. By
proposing solutions through optimizing educational objectives, restructuring curricula, strengthening faculty development, and deepening
industry-academia collaboration, the study aims to bridge the gap between university accounting education and industry needs. The research
ultimately seeks to cultivate high-caliber, interdisciplinary accounting professionals and provide actionable insights for advancing accounting
education reform in academic institutions.
