Our program is a joint-degree offered by 3 AACSB-accredited universities on 3 different continents in 3 global business centers: IQS School of Management in Barcelona, Spain; Fu Jen Catholic University in New Taipei City, Taiwan and Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, United States.

All partner schools recruit a diverse student body from around the globe, with the majority of our students from countries located in the Middle East, Asia, Europe and the Americas.
