EMBA Dual Degree offered by Porto Business School and Kozminski University
At Porto Business School, we push our students to break through limitations and surpass established norms. Our students embrace the challenge wholeheartedly!
Four students from the Executive MBA class of 2022/2023 of PBS decided to pursue not just one MBA degree, but two! That's how Ana Soares, Guilherme Régis, Joaquim Ascenção, and Ivo Mesquita entered the EMBA Dual Degree program, offered by Porto Business School in collaboration with Kozminski University, a top Polish institution.
Ten students (four from PBS and six from Kozminski University) embarked on a transformative journey. It included an international week at ESCP Berlin, the world's oldest business school, with a focus on "Internationalization, Entrepreneurship, and Corporate Start-up Collaboration." They also took classes on "Digital Transformation" in Warsaw and completed final MBA projects alongside Polish peers, guided by mentors from both schools. This marked the start of a unique international adventure, enhancing the students' understanding of both the Portuguese and Polish markets. They benefited from networking, exposure to various business approaches, and a supportive atmosphere that fostered commitment and camaraderie.
Our students from Porto Business School and Kozminski University exceeded all expectations with their outstanding final projects. We will celebrate their dual graduation with Program Directors Rosário Moreira and Sylvia Halas-Dej. The ceremonies will be held in Poland on June 22 and in Porto on July 19, 2024. Let's raise a double toast to our students!

Definitely a considerable advantage and a distinguishing factor within the already demanding Executive MBA program from Porto Business School.
