Global Exchange & Double Degrees

Beside the regular exchange programmes, the SIM Master's programme offers an exclusive SIM Double Degree programme (DDP) with the Nanyang Business School (NBS) in Singapore.

The University of St. Gallen has partnerships with top business schools all over the world to provide its students with double degree and/or exchange opportunities. Students apply to these programs in their first semester after coming to the HSG.

Two degrees in two years
We offer our students the opportunity to earn two degrees - the Nanyang MBA and the SIM Master's - in two years. Students spend the first year at the University of St.Gallen and the second year at Nanyang Business School in Singapore. NBS is a leading MBA program and ranked 27th globally by the Financial Times ranking. Students benefit from a global perspective and an Asian focus, a practical-approach and diverse student body at Nanyang.

Application & Requirements
Following an information session at the beginning of the Fall Semester, SIM students are invited to apply for nomination to the SIM-NBS Double Degree Program. After opening of the application process, the approval begins as soon as all necessary documents have been submitted.

Final approval depends on acceptance by both the University of St.Gallen and the Nanyang Business School. The requirements for participation in this program are, to date, the same as those for acceptance into the SIM program. However, requirements may be revised in any given year, depending on the number of applicants.
