This double degree programme of studies between IBS (Hungary) and The University of Buckingham (UK), delivered in Budapest, covers the core knowledge and skills related to your programme using an interactive and practice-oriented approach to teaching and learning in small groups, and it also includes the UpSkill programme, our HR award-winning employability skills development framework as part of your studies.

This programme will lead you to a sophisticated, interdisciplinary understanding of international business, providing you with a contextual understanding of contemporary international relations, and equipping you with skills, traditionally required in international diplomacy.
