International Exchanges and Partnerships
Experience new cultures through semester exchange.
One of the best ways to better understand a new culture—and not to mention, develop your global mindset—is to spend an entire semester studying outside of your home country. Whether you are a current Knauss School of Business student or an international student looking to study at the University of San Diego, we have special semester exchange programs just for you.

Enjoy learning on a semester abroad.
As a Knauss School of Business graduate student, you're welcome to swap a semester in San Diego for a semester overseas at one of our many partner universities around the world. Not only will you get to experience the sights and sounds of another culture, but you'll earn graduate credits toward your MBA degree.Picture yourself at one of these partner universities.
