Potomac College, Washington, DC and the University of Business and International Studies (UBIS) of Geneva Switzerland, have launched the Swiss/USA Master of Business Administration dual degree program.

This articulation agreement provides educational opportunities and services for UBIS' students to successfully complete an MBA degree from Potomac College.

The MBA degree provides a flexible curriculum and allows students to study in two centers of international politics and business.

They can either take online classes from any location in the world or study at Washington's campus.

As a result, UBIS students can secure a dual degree with international exposure and marketability.

"This unique opportunity to study with international students online, supports Potomac College's mission to create a rich learning experience for our MBA students," Debra Jonsson, Potomac College's COO said.

Patrick Faniel, UBIS' CEO said that this agreement would enhance students' career. Especially in the current job market, an MBA with two different views (US - Swiss) is an additional asset to the MBA students.

A private institution of higher education since 2006, UBIS currently enrolls students from about 40 different countries. Through varied international collaboration, it has installed its campuses in more than 15 countries.

The university offers undergraduate and graduate programs in Business Administration, International Relations, and Media and Communications, along with an appropriate research program.

It also offers short term specific certificates in International organizations and banking and financial services.
