School of Business | The Path to Success

An innovative curriculum and dynamic faculty ensure a stimulating classroom experience, but excellence in business education extends beyond the limits of our hilltop campus.

These experiences integrate your classroom and business project skills in a working business atmosphere.

Duquesne business interns are on the job throughout the Pittsburgh area and across the country. Duquesne faculty and alumni involvement in the regional, national and international business communities makes worldwide internship opportunities available to Duquesne business students.
