Also, the school has a dual MBA degree program with Mexico’s Instituto Tecnologico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey (ITESM). For the most part, USD’s graduate programs with global orientation are supported by the Ahlers Center for International Business under the leadership its director, Professor Denise Dimon, who also played an active part in seeing the exchange agreement come to fruition between USD and KUBS. Professor Dimon suggested that KUBS should further expand its international network and diversify its partners to include Latin American universities, and at the same time expressed her willingness to provide KUBS with contacts at top business schools in the region. Seeing that both schools place great emphasis on broadening the breadth of their global outlook, their interests nicely dovetail with the new student exchange partnership.
