Global partners
At ICD Business School, we are proud to collaborate with over 80 prestigious universities across Europe and around the world. Our international partnerships are carefully cultivated with institutions that share our commitment to academic excellence and global engagement.
Our strategy for selecting international partners is rooted not only in our commitment to enhance the quality and global reach of ICD Business School's educational offerings, but also to respond to our students' needs and ambitions. We prioritize partners based on several key factors, including:
- Academic Excellence: We seek institutions with strong academic programs and a demonstrated commitment to excellence in education through international accreditations.
- Complementary Expertise: Partners should have areas of expertise that complement our own, fostering opportunities for collaborative research and joint programs on projects we are undertaking. Those projects, such as BIPs, COILs, or short-term mobility programs that internationalize our Grande École Program's work-study opportunities, set us apart from our competitors. Although our international counterparts may be ahead of us in these areas, our national competitors do this to a lesser extent or not at all.
- Potential multi-dimensional collaborations: We are always trying to identify partners with whom we can collaborate on various aspects and who can assist us with different projects such as a tailor-made program with Coventry University, BIPs with the University of Minho, a joint research forum and the introduction of a new minor with the University of Macau, and research collaborations with Université Laval.
- Cultural Diversity: We value partners from diverse cultural backgrounds, as this enriches the international experience for our students and faculty.
- Geographic Reach: We aim to diversify our partner network across various regions in which we are not yet present to provide a wide range of study abroad options for our students and meet their growing demand for diversity.
- Erasmus: We are committed to following the ECHE Erasmus Charter. Furthermore, we consider that Erasmus partners offer quality programs, even if some of them do not yet hold international accreditation.
