One Study Journey. Two Qualifications.

A 2-in-1 Programme is an integrated academic pathway developed through MGW’s Academic Partnership Network. Designed from the beginning as a single study journey, these programmes provide students with the opportunity to graduate with two qualifications through collaborations between partner institutions.

Depending on the programme, teaching may be delivered by one institution or shared between multiple academic partners, with each pathway carefully designed to maximise academic value while maintaining a streamlined learning experience.

By enrolling in a 2-in-1 Programme from the outset, students gain access to exclusive opportunities that are not typically available through a single institution alone.

Why choose a 2-in-1 Programme?

  • Graduate with two qualifications through one integrated study pathway.
  • Access exclusive programmes developed through MGW’s Academic Partnership Network.
  • Benefit from collaboration between internationally recognised education providers.
  • Maximise the value of your studies through one coordinated academic journey.
  • Build a broader academic and professional profile for future opportunities.

Expand Your Qualifications

A Top-up Programme allows students to build on an existing qualification by adding a new academic pathway through one of MGW’s partner institutions. Unlike a 2-in-1 Programme, which is designed as an integrated study pathway from the beginning, a Top-up Programme is purchased separately and enables students to enhance their existing qualification with an additional award.

Top-up Programmes are ideal for graduates who have already completed, or are currently studying, an eligible programme and later decide to broaden their academic profile through one of MGW’s exclusive partnership opportunities.

Why choose a Top-up Programme?

  • Add an additional qualification without starting a new programme from scratch.
  • Continue your academic journey through MGW’s Academic Partnership Network.
  • Build on your existing studies with a recognised progression opportunity.
  • Expand your academic and professional profile through international collaboration.

Benefits for Students

  • Access integrated study pathways that can provide more opportunities than a traditional single-institution programme.
  • Study through collaborative programmes developed with trusted education partners across multiple countries.
  • Continue your academic journey through 2-in-1 Programmes and Top-up Pathways designed to support your long-term goals.

Benefits for Partners

  • Offer students access to exclusive academic pathways and programmes from multiple partner institutions through one relationship.
  • Expand your offering with 2-in-1 Programmes, Top-up Pathways and collaborative study options not typically available through a single institution.
  • Work with MGW’s Academic Partnership Network to connect with institutions, develop new collaborations and grow your educational reach.

  • Student Testimonial

    Obtaining a doctoral degree has always been a personal goal and at IBAS. I have found the program that best fits my work and family life. It is a challenge to balance a full-time professional career, the demands of a growing family, and the DBA program.

    At IBAS, the dedicated lecturer and staff helped me to meet this challenge by fortifying the program with mentor-ship, and constant encouragement. Throughout the program, scholarly and intellectual discussions with lecturers or other cohort members have inspired many ideas that translated well into everyday practice in my professional position.
