ItalianoManagement Center Innsbruck is living up to its reputation as one of the most international universities in the German-speaking world. With the Universidade de Sao Paolo in Brazil, Northumbria University in Great Britain and Stockholm University in Sweden, further top-class partners have recently been acquired.
The Universidade de Sao Pa olo is one of the largest universities in Brazil and Latin America. In addition to the main campus in Sao Paolo, there are university campuses in five other cities in Brazil. With over 90,000 students, the university has a somewhat different profile than the MCI and therefore ideally complements the Entrepreneurial School®. In renowned university rankings such as the Shangai Ranking or the THE Ranking, the Universidade de Sao Paolo is regularly the best-ranked Latin American university. Sao Paolo is considered the economic centre of Brazil and more European than the capital Brasilia. As with most partnerships, the Universidade de Sao Paolo also offers the possibility of a mutual student exchange. One student from MCI's Bio & Food Technology programme and one student from the Master's programme in Food Technology & Nutrition can each spend a semester at the South American university.
As study places in the UK are particularly sought after by students, the MCI is expanding its range of British partner universities despite Brexit. The Newcastle Business School at Northumbria University, like the MCI, has the renowned AACSB accreditation. Newcastle is a vibrant city in the north of England. The exchange study places are in the field of tourism - especially in this area it is important to understand the English guest. At the same time, the rugged beauty of northern England is a popular tourist destination.
In addition, the MCI continues to expand university partnerships in Scandinavia. The third new addition is therefore Stockholm University. The Swedish university is one of the most important universities in Scandinavia - both in terms of size and quality. In the Shanghai Ranking 2017, Stockholm University is ranked 74th worldwide. The cooperation with the MCI takes place via the business faculty, the "Stockholm Business School". Sweden is considered a pioneer in many social issues. This is one of the reasons why the Swedish capital and Stockholm University are so exciting for young people.
Susanne Lichtmannegger, Head of International Relations at MCI, is pleased: "We succeed in concluding agreements with the best universities in the world. This is proof of the MCI's success story and, of course, above all a gift and a special opportunity for our students, who can spend a semester abroad there."
