History

DBS was founded in 1975 as 'Accountancy and Business College'. In 1999, Dublin Business School acquired LSB College Dublin.

In 2003, DBS was taken over by Kaplan, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of The Washington Post Company, and by 2004, it had around 5,500 students.

In 2006, DBS bought European Business School Dublin (EBS), a collective of eight independent business schools located throughout Europe.

Portobello College, a law school led by Raymond Kearns, was taken over by DBS in 2007. It allowed DBS to incorporate a law school offering both undergraduate and postgraduate programmes to its students.

In 2008, the Lidl chain of supermarkets made an agreement with DBS to create a degree oriented to the retail industry.

Campus

The Dublin Business School has six locations around Dublin. Its main campus is located at Aungier Street and South Great George's Street.[citation needed]
