Barry offers international double-MBA program

March 23, 2012·Nancy Dahlberg

The following is from Barry University about a new international MBA program:

Barry University’s Andreas School of Business is now offering students from across the globe the opportunity to earn a Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree from Barry as well as one from their native country’s university in almost half the time it would take to do both separately.

Students can take part of the Double Degree program affording them the cultural experience and networking capabilities in two separate parts of the world through partnerships with several universities worldwide. Students study two semesters in their native university and two semesters at Barry. Once their academic work is complete, students have the opportunity to work at a U.S. company where they experience hands-on learning and training

Barry MBA students will also have the chance to study abroad and earn a degree from a partnering university through the Double Degree program.
