DBS won Irish Education Awards for Overall Education Excellence, Best Student Experience, and Best Library team in the past two years. They were also named Ireland's Best College of Business and Business School of the Year for three consecutive years.

WHO WILL TEACH YOU: At DBS, a Baylor faculty member will teach two courses, a Baylor Ph.D. student will teach one course, and DBS faculty will teach other courses approved by Baylor academic advisors.
