The IBSA Dual-Degree Master

Courses are offered under the auspices of the International Business School Alliance (IBSA). The IBSA program offers a set of core modules in term one, followed by a term two specialization consisting of 4-6 modules and a final research project.

Term one provided students with core modules worth 60 UK or 30 ECTS or 12 SH credits, setting the context of the broader field of global business and management.

Term two provides the specialization modules, also worth 60 UK or 30 ECTS or 12 SH credits.

In term three the final research project worth a further 60 UK or 30 ECTS credits or 12 SH is related to the chosen specialist business function.

Students start with the first term at any of the 7 partner universities belonging to the International Business School Alliance (IBSA) and have to change to a second IBSA-partner in the second term. The final research project in the third term is completed at this second IBSA-partner.

After completing the whole program successfully, students receive a degree from both universities, at which they have studied.
