Its faculty and student body come from around the world, creating a multicultural and multilingual learning environment where local and international students learn side by side. Combined with the College’s extensive international exchange and internship resources, the program provides students with a highly globalized educational experience that significantly enhances their career competitiveness after graduation.

IBMBA graduates continue to excel, propelling the program into the 2025 Financial Times Global Masters in Management Top 100 Ranking.
