The University of San Diego School of Business is collaborating with Centro de Ense\u00f1anza T\u00e9cnica Y Superior (CETYS) to offer CETYS University graduate students the USD Master of Science in Global Leadership (MSGL) degree, coupled with an MBA from CETYS at their campus in Mexicali, Baja California, M\u00e9xico. This is the very first time that a USD degree is offered and granted outside of the U.S.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOffering our MSGL degree at CETYS\u2019 state-of-the-art campus in Mexicali recognizes the importance of economic and social integration along the U.S.-Mexico border,\u201d said James T. Harris III, president of the University of San Diego. \u201cUSD School of Business students and CETYS students have previously worked together on multiple assignments and consulting projects with a cross-border perspective, and this new collaboration represents the next step in USD\u2019s globalization of its educational initiatives.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"colaboracion\"<\/p>\n

Dr. Fernando Le\u00f3n Garc\u00eda president of CETYS University, said \u201cIt\u2019s an honor and pleasure to be able to offer such an innovative and unique program with a leader institution like USD. \u00a0It reflects the type of initiatives that bring about knowledge, better practices and the connections necessary to better serve our students, supporting their professional growth so they\u2019re able to be leaders in particular in our CaliBaja region. \u00a0With our USD alliance, CETYS moves forward and takes to another level the university\u2019s commitment to be globally competitive.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

All USD MSGL courses will be delivered across the border in Mexicali in English by USD faculty beginning in July 2019, and both universities are accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC). The program can be completed in a part-time or full-time format in approximately 24 months.

The University of San Diego annually hosts nearly 1,000 students and scholars from 100 countries and is ranked number one in the United States for the percentage of undergraduate students who study abroad. USD\u2019s graduate programs incorporate several global learning opportunities. In 2014, the USD Madrid Center was inaugurated and there are plans in place to open a USD Rome Center in 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n
