Dual degrees with a world of opportunity. 

The International Food Business (IFB) program

Earn 2 degrees, from 2 universities, on 2 continents—all in 4 years

If you have a passion for international travel, are interested in business development, and care about global food issues, then this program is for you. 

This applied international business program is a joint venture between Dalhousie University and Aeres University of Applied Sciences. As a result, students spend their second year studying abroad in the Netherlands which is followed by a European internship. Students then complete an additional internship in North America after their third year. Students gain real-world experience and begin to network internationally. In the fourth and final year, students build specializations from elective courses and write a year-long thesis. Upon graduation, students earn two degrees, a Bachelor of Business Administration (Honours) from Aeres University and a Bachelor of Agriculture from Dalhousie University.
