Introduction

As things currently stand, students seeking degrees at the International University of Grand-Bassam (IUGB) will not complete all their four years of study in Côte d'Ivoire. The program of study is designed jointly between IUGB and Georgia State University (GSU) through an exchange program. As a result, degree programs at IUGB are designed to meet the degree requirements at GSU.
