The global marketplace is IBS's academic specialty. Within this niche, we offer full- and part-time degree programs to address many career interests. We offer a special degree program in partnership with Wellesley College. There are also opportunities for Brandeis undergraduates to study at the School, and an intensive Executive Education program on Macroeconomic Policy and Management.
The common thread is our specialized focus on international finance, economics and management, and on international perspectives and experiences. Our MA and MBA, in particular, are among the few in the world that require international experience and provide exciting options for acquiring it.
