Our commitment to success is in our DNA.

Quinnipiac University was born as The Connecticut College of Commerce, founded – and financed – by eleven determined business students who believed in the transformative value of college education. Nearly a century later, their ambition, determination and enterprising spirit live on in our AACSB-accredited Business School and AACSB accredited accounting program, award-winning business school, from our state-of-the-art Business Innovation Hub to the Terry W. Goodwin ‘67 Financial Technology Center, the M&T Bank Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship and the M&T Bank Center for Women in Business.

The new School of Business building at Quinnipiac University, designed by award-winning global architects Pei Cobb Freed & Partners, is iconic and significant while also complementary in scale and materials to the existing Mount Carmel Campus. The sustainable, 79,000-square foot LEED-certified structure has been thoughtfully situated on the new South Quad to educate the decision-makers of the future, preparing them to confront global challenges.

On the South Quad, students will have the opportunity to work in spaces that encourage an inclusive and interdisciplinary mindset.
