The 20-month International MBA program combines classroom instruction in Malibu with experiential learning at one of our partner universities in Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, or Latin America. Through rigorous MBA course work, international electives, two study abroad trips, and a globally focused internship, you’ll graduate uniquely prepared to succeed in today’s interconnected global economy.
At select partner universities an optional International MBA Dual-Degree program is available for students who meet eligibility requirements. The IMBA Dual-Degree entails a modified curriculum involving an internship overseas and an additional term of study at the partner university for the completion of two degrees: the partner university’s degree as well as the IMBA degree from Pepperdine. The IMBA Dual-Degree extends the length of the IMBA by two trimesters and is approximately an additional trimester and a half of tuition payable to Pepperdine. Pepperdine academic scholarships do not cover the additional terms of study.
Our International MBA (IMBA) is specially designed to prepare you for a career in global business with multinational companies. The Pepperdine Full-Time IMBA curriculum builds MBA-level expertise in business and provides multinational experience in a variety of settings. Hands-on international business and language study within the U.S. and in two locations abroad thoroughly prepare you for the international business arena. Students earn a special concentration in international business in conjunction with this MBA degree.
