The school, which has been organizing short-term international programs since 2003, has partnerships with six universities in the United States and Europe. In 2022, around 1,460 students of 70 different nationalities took part in the international programs. The expectation for 2023 is that this number will grow by 30% to 1900 students from 80 different countries.
Prof. Ricardo Britto, President of IBS Americas, explains this growth: "In an increasingly globalized and connected world, having a command of the language and the ability to understand how different cultures and countries cooperate for business success is what makes a professional indispensable. And many professionals are looking for this international experience to jump-start their careers."
The partner universities of the IBS Americas scholarship programs are: University of La Verne, California State University (Northridge), State University of New York and Americas International College, all in the United States; Bayswater College London (England) and CUOA Business School (Italy) complete the list. All course options are open for 2024.
