Double degree programs are an extremely important area of international cooperation at Kozminski University, emphasizes Prof. Mariola Ciszewska-Mlinarič, Dean of the College of Management. Thanks to partnerships with renowned universities from around the world, our students gain the invaluable opportunity to graduate with diplomas from both Kozminski University and one of our partner institutions. We are very pleased that we can now offer our bachelor's students in management and AI the chance to study in Italy and experience the exceptional Luiss University. The double degree program is not only about earning two diplomas but, above all, about building an international network of contacts and gaining experiences that will shape our students' future career paths.
Kozminski University was represented at the signing of the agreement by Prof. Grzegorz Mazurek, Rector, Prof. Mariola Ciszewska-Mlinarič, Dean of the College of Management, and Dr Krzysztof Chmielewski, Vice-Dean of the College of Management for English-language programs. Luiss was represented by Prof. Andrea Prencipe, Rector, Prof. Irene Finocchi, Director of the Bachelor’s Degree in Management and Artificial Intelligence, as well as Sergio Rios Perez.
The agreement offers Kozminski University students the opportunity to gain knowledge and benefit from the international community of a renowned foreign university without having to spend the entire period of their studies abroad. During the program, students will spend two semesters in Italy, taking relevant courses on the Luiss campus. This arrangement allows them to maintain contact with the local job market while building an international network of peers from around the world studying similar subjects.
The agreement with Luiss is also another step in the implementation of Kozminski University's internationalization strategy. The university consistently creates a fully open and multicultural environment and community. Many study programs at all levels of education are conducted in English, supported by educators and researchers permanently collaborating with prestigious foreign institutions such as MIT, Yale, Harvard University, and ESCP Business School. Kozminski University also offers double degree programs at the master's level.
The double degree program with Kozminski University is also a unique opportunity for Luiss students to gain an international experience and skills that are highly valued in the global job market, emphasizes Prof. Irene Finocchi, Director of the Luiss Bachelor in Management and Artificial Intelligence. By spending two semesters in a renowned business school in Warsaw, students can widen their academic as well as personal perspective while experiencing a different cultural context. The joint program makes it possible to educate future leaders in the fast moving artificial intelligence realm and to build a common ground by leveraging the expertise of both partners in a new and continuously evolving educational landscape focused on digital technologies.
