Dublin Business School (DBS), incorporating Portobello College, is an independent college in Ireland. With over 9,000 students, DBS provides a range of full-time and part-time undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, with courses in subject areas such as business, law, accounting, event management, IT, arts, media studies and psychology.
When Dublin Business School was first established in 1975 it was known as Accountancy and Business College and provided evening courses for students preparing for the examinations of the professional accounting bodies.
Success and a growing reputation in this field led to the school expanding its operations to offer full and part-time accounting, marketing and banking courses.
