Barrett, The Honors College Thesis/Creative Project Collection
Barrett, The Honors College at Arizona State University proudly showcases the work of undergraduate honors students by sharing this collection exclusively with the ASU community.
Barrett accepts high performing, academically engaged undergraduate students and works with them in collaboration with all of the other academic units at Arizona State University. All Barrett students complete a thesis or creative project which is an opportunity to explore an intellectual interest and produce an original piece of scholarly research. The thesis or creative project is supervised and defended in front of a faculty committee. Students are able to engage with professors who are nationally recognized in their fields and committed to working with honors students. Completing a Barrett thesis or creative project is an opportunity for undergraduate honors students to contribute to the ASU academic community in a meaningful way.

In 2022, the revenue generated from accounting services hit an all-time high of 119.48 billion USD (“Accounting Services in the US - Market Size”, 2022). On top of this, research has shown that 45% of all accounting professionals would like to automate something about their workflow (Thomas, 2020). Indeed, a lot of bookkeeping accountancy has been phased out by simple automation. However, larger accounting tasks like business mergers still require a team of accountants despite being a largely iterative process. This project chronicles one such attempt at automating accounting events or transactions that are performed by businesses both large and small. With the help of accounting students Madeline Stolper and Heddie Liu we were able to build a fully-functioning website to automate accounting transactions. For this project, we used industry-standard software frameworks React and Express to build the site with dynamic accounting applications. These applications were built with reusable components, making the development of future applications very simple. We also leveraged cutting-edge technological solutions from Amazon Web Services to make the website available on the Internet with rapid response times. Lastly, we incorporated an agile approach to project management and communication, in order to create functionality in the most efficient and organized manner possible. On a large scale, something like this has never been attempted and TurboIFRS/GAAP represents a revolutionary leap in accounting automation.

The process of learning a new skill can be time consuming and difficult for both the teacher and the student, especially when it comes to computer modeling. With so many terms and functionalities to familiarize oneself with, this task can be overwhelming to even the most knowledgeable student. The purpose of this paper is to describe the methodology used in the creation of a new set of curricula for those attempting to learn how to use the Dynamic Traffic Simulation Package with Multi-Resolution Modeling. The current DLSim curriculum currently relates information via high-concept terms and complicated graphics. The information in this paper aims to provide a streamlined set of curricula for new users of DLSim, including lesson plans and improved infographics.
