Message from the IPBS President
Partners in
International Business Education
 | The world of business has become more complex and competitive in recent years. Increasingly, organisations are operating across national boundaries and adopting a truly global mindset. These developments bring new opportunities for growth and expansion, but also carry increased challenges, risk and exposure. |
To maintain global competitiveness, effective corporate leadership is
more important than ever. This requires a sound knowledge of business
functions, well developed skills and a capacity to make sound business
decisions in the interests of diverse groups of stakeholders. The successful
international manager must have the ability to apply their knowledge, skills
and competences in a wide range of national and cultural settings.
The International Partnership of Business Schools has been in existence
since 1974 and is now a well established network with a strong record of
success in international business education. In addition to offering Bachelor
and Master degree programmes, IPBS also provides a network of IPBS alumni and
also draws from its extensive pool of professors to provide opportunities for
research collaboration, including doctoral studies.
IPBS constituent partners are all successful business schools in their
own right, who combine resources and experience to provide an exciting and
effective opportunity to study and gain degree qualifications in an
international environment. IPBS Bachelor and Master programmes are designed
with the needs of international business in mind. Our programmes present an
opportunity to live and study in two countries, gaining exposure to a wide
range of different cultures, while gaining a top class business education.
