The Charles F. Dolan School of Business (or the Dolan School of Business) is a nationally recognized graduate and undergraduate business school and one of the professional schools of Fairfield University located in Fairfield, Connecticut. The school offers fully accredited graduate and undergraduate programs, according to the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB). The school is named after Charles F. Dolan, H'04, founder of HBO, Chairman of Cablevision Systems Corporation and Fairfield University trustee, in recognition of his $25 million donation in 2000. The Dolan School of Business is committed to the Jesuit tradition of educating the "whole" person to be a socially responsible professional, who is prepared to serve others.
The Dolan School of Business finds its roots in the Department of Business established in 1947 within the College of Arts and Sciences at Fairfield University. The undergraduate programs received accreditation from the AACSB in 1977. In 1978, the stand-alone Dolan School of Business was founded after the undergraduate programs of the Department of Business were separated from the College of Arts and Sciences and the school began offering a graduate degree program, a Master of Science in Financial Management. The degree was later renamed the Master of Science in Finance (MSF). In 1984, the school introduced its second graduate degree program, the Master of Business Administration (MBA) with concentrations in Accounting, Finance, Human Resource Management, Information Systems and Operations Management, International Business, Marketing, and Taxation.
In 1990, Kevin Conlisk '66 established the Father John Conlisk Irish Scholarship which awards a full-ride every year to a MBA or MSF candidate from the Republic of Ireland to foster cultural exchange and international relations. In 1997, the school received full accreditation for its graduate and undergraduate programs from AACSB International.
