About
Duquesne University
Nestled in a private 43-acre campus in the heart of Pittsburgh,
Duquesne University provides a uniquely world-renowned education
that continues to be grounded in the values of the Holy Spirit
Fathers who founded it in 1878. Faculty are recognized time and
again both nationally and internationally for their instruction
and research, and their support and encouragement provide an energetic
and productive environment in which students thrive.

Duquesne's
reach extends far beyond the serene
setting of its campus. The University
and its ten schools are both neighbors
and partners with Pittsburgh's
corporate center and have signed
working agreements with institutions
in Belgium, Germany, France, Spain,
Ireland, England, China, Japan,
Italy, and the Commonwealth of
Independent States.
Students
at Duquesne will find the excitement
and opportunities of big city
living—including diverse dining and nightlife
spots, three professional sports teams and a continuously developing
and thriving cultural scene—blend well with the more personal
charms of Pittsburgh, a city consistently cited as one of the nation's
most livable.
With programs
dating from the founding of the
School of Accounting and Finance
in 1913, Duquesne's John
F. Donahue Graduate School of
Business has continued to develop,
broaden and adapt its curriculum
and is nationally accredited by
the Association for the Advancement
of Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) International.
Today, the school strives to develop strategic, multi-disciplined
and ethical leaders capable of managing in an uncertain global
economy. |
