Welcome to Business

Welcome to the Business program!

We’re so excited you are considering joining our vibrant community. Whether you’re looking to dive into entrepreneurship, add business skills to your current academic path, or launch a career in business, we have the tools, resources, and support to help you achieve your goals.

Our program is both practical and pragmatic. We partner with other DVC programs to offer a business component that complements various academic disciplines, providing a well-rounded education that enhances your marketability and skill set.  

One of the most exciting aspects of our program is the opportunity to engage directly with real business owners. You’ll get to go face to face with entrepreneurs and learn firsthand about the mindset and challenges they experience every day.  

Our faculty is not only well-qualified but deeply business-oriented and engaged with students. They bring a wealth of real-world experience to the classroom and are dedicated to your personal and professional growth. You’ll benefit from personalized academic counseling, often discovering the guidance and direction you didn’t even realize you needed.  

I encourage you to explore what DVC’s Business Program has to offer. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or want to learn more—I’d be happy to chat and help you get started.

Warm regards,

Arek Puzia
