Geneva is home to UBIS, an innovative young institution that delivers modern programs in Business and International Relations. There is no other city in the world with so much access to the world headquarters of major businesses, financial institutions and international organizations.  The UBIS DNA is composed of three main factors: Real World Experience, Individual Attention and an International Perspective. UBIS’ professors are highly experienced professionals. They bring to the classroom real-world problems and analyze them with the critical eye of experience. Our professors will provide students with a strategic framework within which to position the issues that they will be facing in their professional lives.

UBIS is a truly international community: Our faculty, staff and students come from over 40 different nationalities and from every corner of the world. UBIS also has a strong network of international academic partners and an international Alumni network. Currently, the UBIS’ Family is spread over four continents.

At UBIS, we align our programs with the needs of society and build capacities of our students so that they have a firm foundation to navigate through territories they may not be familiar with. Besides providing knowledge and experiences in business and international relations topics, UBIS places great emphasis on the development of the person because the future of work does not demand only technical knowledge of a particular topic. The ability of individuals to constantly adapt and change and find their place in society is also crucial. Therefore, at UBIS we design teaching methodologies that give our students the opportunity to get to know themselves better, to maximize their strengths, to understand their own influence and to have the confidence and courage to implement projects that have a positive impact on the world. In other words, we give them 21^st century tools to cope with business and societal challenges that we might not even be aware of yet.
