EADA currently runs exchange programmes with 29 schools on five continents. These programmes enable EADA master and MBA students to study three to six months in a prestigious international school.  The aim is for participants to acquire a more comprehensive international outlook by studying in another country. This also involves new challenges such as making new contacts increasing one’s career prospects and taking part in joint research undertaken by the two institutions.
