You’ll graduate equipped with the core competencies employers seek—the basics of accounting and finance, data presentation and analysis, a customer orientation through all parts of business, and more.

Your business knowledge and deep expertise in your concentration area can help you launch or accelerate your career to a significant role in just about any industry you choose. Employers especially value the signature D’Amore-McKim emphasis on the role of data and technology in the global marketplace, which is one reason D’Amore-McKim graduates are highly recruited by top firms, multinational businesses, and startups.
