Insper has become a recognized teaching center of the University of London (UoL), offering a unique opportunity for Business Administration and Economics students: the chance to obtain two degrees simultaneously, without leaving Brazil. Through the Parallel Degree program, students follow Insper’s curriculum while also completing assessments administered by UoL/LSE.
The program structure integrates Insper’s academic content with assessments overseen by the UoL — which grants the degree — under the academic direction of the London School of Economics (LSE), one of the world’s most renowned institutions in the fields of Economics and Business Administration.
The program supports students in developing advanced analytical skills, a strong connection between theory and practice, and a problem-solving mindset to tackle complex challenges.
The program opens one call for applications each semester, with a limited number of spots available. Students enrolled in Insper’s Business Administration or Economics programs who are in their second semester or beyond are eligible to apply.
Each call includes academic criteria, English language proficiency requirements, and other conditions, all of which can be found in detail on the program page in the Student Portal.
