Global MBA - Triple Master Program

About the Global MBA- Triple Master Program

The Global MBA- Triple Master Program at Loyola University New Orleans allows students to earn their MBAs in three Business Schools, in three countries, across two continents. This program fully integrates three world-class universities into a rigorous international MBA degree program, and allows for students to earn two additional masters with our partner universities: A Master of Science in Management from Germany’s top-ranked Ludwig-Maximilians-University, and the extremely coveted Diplôme Grand École from SKEMA, one of the most prestigious French Business Schools. It provides opportunities to study abroad in Paris, France and Munich, Germany to experience different cultural settings and deal with the challenges of a global economy.
