Degree Programs in Bridgetown, Barbados

The MITP program – and the shorter three-month PGITP – offers the chance to take hold of your future and become an expert in international trade policy. Our signature 12-month MITP covers both theoretical and practical components. The first and second semesters, which are taught online/in-person, tackle the theories and scope of trade rules from a multi-disciplinary perspective of law, politics, and economics. While the program offers a global perspective, its added value lies in its uniquely Caribbean perspective that students can’t find anywhere else. This aspect affords them the opportunity to come up with Caribbean-specific responses to global problems and issues. The practical component includes a two-week study tour in a city or region of particular trade interest of the region (currently, Geneva). When students return home, they undertake a three-month practical internship at a national, regional, or international institution or at a company with a trade-related function. Students have the opportunity to enroll in a multicultural Caribbean campus and experience other cultures at a highly ranked and accredited university.
