The McCombs School signed a formal partnership with the Wits Business School in Johannesburg, South Africa, paving the way for students to study abroad there for course credit, beginning in fall 2010.
The partnership was was driven by student interest, as MBA students who traveled to Johannesburg on McCombs Global Connections trips said they would like the opportunity to spend a full semester there. The partnership also allows Wits students to study at McCombs.
The agreement was signed during the Partnership in International Management conference, which brought leaders from 57 schools from 35 different countries to McCombs to discuss improving international student and faculty exchange opportunities.
