Joint Master’s programmesKyiv National Economic University/University of Redlands Your Opportunity for an International Degree
A Unique Opportunity for KNEU Students
KNEU students can earn a Master of Business Administration (MBA) or a Master in International Management (MIM) degree that is awarded jointly by the two Universities upon meeting the requirements of both institutions. Both Universities share responsibility for the design, delivery, and quality of the programs, thereby affording students the opportunity to earn their degree from two distinguished and accredited educational institutions in Ukraine and the US. Because instruction and coursework both in Kyiv and Redlands is entirely in English, students must possess advanced language capabilities and be ready to improve further their communication skills in English.
Students in the Joint MBA or MIM program combine study at KNEU with a summer semester comprised of three courses at the University of Redlands located near Los Angeles in southern California. These three courses are offered in the June to August period and provide, along with optional excursions throughout southern California, a truly global perspective to your studies. Successful students will be conferred their degree that clearly reflects the joint nature of the award and become alumni of both institutions.
