The<\/span> International Partnership of Business Schools<\/span><\/a> (IPBS) has added Brock University\u2019s Goodman School of Business as the only Canadian partner in its network.<\/span><\/p>\n

The consortium of 13 globally-oriented, leading business schools in Europe, North and Latin America all grant double degrees, which require study in two countries and promote language and cultural fluency along with business aptitude.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis partnership will literally open up a world of opportunity for our students and faculty,\u201d said Goodman Dean Andrew Gaudes. \u201cIt means we are now part of a group that holds the same values of including international experience as well as incorporating work placement in a student\u2019s business education.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The papers were signed March 15 at the IPBS annual meeting, hosted by Universidad de las Am\u00e9ricas Puebla in Mexico. The partnership provides Goodman students and faculty access to opportunities in Brazil, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, Spain, the United Kingdom and the United States.<\/span><\/p>\n

IPBS President Robert Robinson said Brock\u2019s introduction as Canada\u2019s partner school strengthens the presence of the network in North America. \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cBrock brings to the consortium a freshness, vigour and dynamism that will serve to enhance our reputation and quality. We look forward to fostering a deep and lasting strategic alliance in the coming years,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Goodman currently offers<\/span> double-degree options<\/span><\/a> with three of network\u2019s partners, providing students the opportunity to earn degrees from both Goodman and the partner institution while gaining co-op experience in both Canada and abroad.<\/span><\/p>\n

As a result of this partnership, Goodman is near finalizing additional double-degree opportunities with new network partners, giving more students the opportunity to benefit from gaining a global business education.<\/span><\/p>\n

Other partners in the consortium are: Dublin City University, Elon University, Funda\u00e7\u00e3o Getulio Vargas, Lancaster University, Neoma Business School, North Carolina State University, Northeastern University, Reutlingen University,<\/span> Universidad de las Am\u00e9ricas Puebla, Universidad Pontificia Comillas (ICADE), Universit\u00e0 Cattolica del Sacro Cuore (UCSC) and the University of San Diego.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
