The Best Business Schools in Dallas for 2027

The University of Dallas offers business at the undergraduate level as a Bachelor of Arts (120 hours) or a more quantitative Bachelor of Science (133 hours, adding four technical business courses). Both combine the university Core Curriculum, a business major core, electives and a business practicum, and both rest on a liberal arts foundation with an emphasis on ethical leadership and critical thinking.

The school reports that programs in its Satish and Yasmin Gupta College of Business hold AACSB accreditation and are taught by instructors with years of business experience.

The page notes that oversight may move to the Department of Management and Marketing, pending state approval.

Strayer University-Texas offers a Bachelor of Science in Accounting, available online. According to the program page, its principal aims are to give students a broad, fundamental knowledge of the field, prepare them for accounting careers, and add a liberal arts component that builds communication skills, information literacy and critical analysis. The listed learning outcomes cover US and international accounting principles, applying taxation rules to meet federal and state compliance, and auditing an organization's processes to confirm strong internal controls. Students also learn to prepare and interpret managerial accounting reports for business decisions and to build ethical decision-making habits. The page does not list a CPA licensure path, so students aiming for licensure should confirm their state board's credit requirements directly with the school.

The program earned a Program Score of 67.3 out of 100, which is the basis of its ranking.
