German-Mexican programme (IPBS)
Students who choose the German-Mexican programme study two years at ESB Business School Reutlingen and then two years at Universidad de las Américas, Puebla, Mexico (UDLAP). A special feature of this programme is that there are two main languages of tuition at the partner school: Spanish and English.
| 1st semester | Reutlingen |
| 2nd semester | Reutlingen |
| 3rd semester | Work placement Germany |
| 4th semester | Reutlingen |
| Summer | Voluntary internship |
| 5th semester | Puebla |
| 6th semester | Puebla |
| 7th semester | Work placement & final year project to be completed in the 7th or 8th semester in Mexico |
| 8th semester | Work placement & final year project to be completed in the 7th or 8th semester in Mexico |
After successful completion of eight semesters of study, students are awarded two international degrees:
- Bachelor of Science in International Management (ESB Business School)
- Bachelor in International Business Administration (Puebla)
Students with a higher than average level of academic achievement and at least 9 months’ professional experience can take an extra semester of studies at a top class ECTS partner school in a third country in the third semester, instead of taking an internship in Germany.
"Puebla is a remarkable study option from ESB Business School: Not only can one study in both the English and the Spanish language, the campus at Puebla is spectacular and of highest nobility."
