You have been doing accounting work, but are you a CPA? If so, have you beeinvolved in any business valuation projects? What has been and what will continue to be a very hot speciality in accounting is forensic accounting, which includes business valuation and many other disciplines. Most of the larger local/regional accounting firms have increased the size of their dispute resolution practices so think about it. I am a Big 4 audit manager and know about the industry.
I'm a senior accounting major right now hoping to get a Big 4 internship for the Spring of 2010. So would you suggest one get involved in Forensic Accounting? It is still considered "audit", correct?

My advice would be to do the internship and do plain old auditing until you are a senior. At that juncture explore any opportunity within your Firm in fields such as forensics etc... they want and you will want the seasoning in audit.
Option 2 is stay in audit to manager and then any firm (not just yours) would be your option into a specialized field.
Just my two cents
