At the same time, the quality and content
of your business education is becoming
increasingly important. Just as economies
and companies are becoming more competitive,
employers are becoming more specific and
demanding in their expectations. As you
look to the future, you need a school that
is tuned in to this trend, actively soliciting
the input of business leaders and responding
to the feedback.
The A.J. Palumbo School of Business Administration
is on the forefront of this movement, offering
the areas of study employers are seeking
and emphasizing such critical factors as
ethics, a global perspective and Total
Quality Management (TQM). Duquesne doesn't
only teach TQM, it practices TQM, including
a customer-oriented approach and a goal
of constant improvement. The business school
has established advisory boards for each
of its disciplines to promote ongoing dialogue
with the executives who will eventually
hire their students, and continually refines
its curriculum in response to the marketplace's
changing needs.
Because of these and other efforts, the
Duquesne University undergraduate and graduate
schools of business are among a select
group to be fully accredited by the American
Assembly of Collegiate Schools of Business
(AACSB).
Of the nation's more than 1,200 business
schools, less than 25 percent have earned
this honor. AACSB accreditation helps to
ensure that a Duquesne business education
places you in a unique category of excellence.
Accepting the challenge of today's business
world, Duquesne has revolutionized its
business programs, staking a claim to leadership
in several critical areas: |
