All feature rigorous coursework and hands-on experiences that are continually updated to reflect current business practices. But that’s only part of the equation. We also seek to develop your ethical compass, life skills and professionalism so you’re ready to make a positive difference in your career, your community and beyond.

Ethics & Integrity
Business ethics and academic integrity are not just buzz words at Daniels. They influence every aspect of the Daniels experience from courses that tackle real-world business dilemmas to professors who challenge you to consider the ethical implications of your choices to fellow students who give back through community service projects.
Leading the way for two decades.
With the support of our namesake, cable television pioneer and philanthropist, Bill Daniels, we were one of the first business colleges to make business ethics part of the core curriculum. We’ve been leaders in teaching business ethics—our faculty members are recognized worldwide as experts—for more than two decades. We believe it is our responsibility to produce graduates who will manage and lead with integrity.
An advantage with prospective employers.
Employers recognize that Daniels graduates are uniquely prepared to navigate complex business situations. Our graduates have both the business know-how and the ethical bearings to make smart and sustainable business decisions. They know that just one unethical decision or careless act can ruin a company’s long-standing reputation, let alone their own. It’s no wonder that employers seek out our graduates.
We expect the best from you.
Ethics don’t just apply to business, of course. We have equally high standards for the ethical conduct of the entire Daniels community of students, faculty and staff. All incoming undergraduates sign the University of Denver Honor Code pledging to uphold the principles of truth and honesty in academics. The Student Conduct Policy further defines the values that distinguish DU and Daniels: civility, community, integrity and responsibility. Our students tell us that this focus on ethics and integrity creates a learning environment that is open and honest—and prepares them well for the challenges ahead.
Global Emphasis
Daniels College of Business opens up the world to our students. From the classroom to around the globe, we’ve developed a wide array of international learning experiences that will open your mind, enhance your cross-cultural skills and prepare you to navigate globalization issues with confidence and integrity.
A global perspective is required.
All Daniels undergraduates are required to have an international education experience. Most students fulfill this requirement by studying abroad, but it also may be fulfilled by participating in an international internship or taking an international business course.
International Business Major
This interdisciplinary major encompasses business fundamentals, international law and policy and cultural awareness. The exploration of global issues is integrated throughout the curricula—everything from the nuts and bolts of international finance to sustainable development in emerging economies.
The major has a foreign language requirement, and courses are taken at both Daniels and DU’s Korbel School of International Studies.
Study Abroad
Our students are encouraged to expand their academic and cultural horizons by studying abroad. More than two-thirds of Daniels undergraduate students spend a quarter or longer studying abroad. Learn more about our study abroad programs.
Technical Expertise
At Daniels, your business education is comprehensive and complete. An essential part is learning the tools of the trade—the technical expertise demanded by business today.
Through coursework, simulations, case studies and in-the-field experiences, you’ll become fluent in business terminology and you’ll master the technology and methodologies used in a variety of business disciplines. Key business functions you’ll learn include analyzing financial statements, conducting market research and developing strategic business plans.
Microsoft Office Certification Requirement
Microsoft Office is widely used in the business world, and your mastery of it will help you better analyze data, model various business situations and create persuasive presentations. To demonstrate mastery of Microsoft Office applications, all Daniels undergraduates must pass the Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) exam which includes a certification exam for Microsoft Excel, Word, and PowerPoint.

Favorite DU moment
If I had to pick a favorite thing about DU, it`s probably the Business Analytics courses. I loved my Automating Business Processes and Enterprise Information Management classes, where I got to create my personal AI assistant, Allen! He`s a little sassy, but full of knowledge and fun facts about birds.
Media you recommend
Check out the Our Oceans documentary on Netflix! It has cute animals, engaging commentary, and a powerful message about global warming. Plus, it features Atlantic Puffins, one of my favorite birds! Fun fact: puffins can dive up to 60 meters under water!
Favorite way to get involved on campus
I love meeting with friends in the library to get coffee and work on projects together.

Favorite DU moment
Traveling to Dubai and India with my fellow REBE students and staff was unforgettable. I saw spectacular structures like the Burj Khalifa and Taj Mahal and was immersed in fascinating cultures. That was my first time abroad and I got to celebrate my 21st birthday in India!
Media you recommend
I recommend Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens. It’s a beautifully written coming-of-age story with a riveting murder mystery. Anyone that admires poetry and nature would adore this book.
Favorite way to get involved on campus
Volunteering at student-run service projects is my favorite way to get involved on campus. Being a member of the Daniels Ethics Fellowship not only gave me experience in running these events, but made me aware of the intentionality behind service, showing me how ethical leadership can create a lasting impact. I love supporting my peers with the heart and ambition to serve our community.
Favorite place to relax
I love spending time at Evergreen Lake. It's a scenic escape from the city and the perfect spot to visit with friends for paddleboarding in the summer or ice skating in the winter.
