IB Diploma Programme

International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme

Among the many high school senior school qualifications around the globe, the IB Diploma Programme (IBDP) has earned the distinction over the years of being one of the most challenging and broadest in its kind. The MBIS school incorporates the best curricula of different national systems to expand the horizons of education.

The programme offers the students to study at least one subject from the following broad venues: two languages, an experimental science, mathematics, and one arts. The course includes an in-depth research component (extended essay), an epistemology class (theory of knowledge), creativity, activity and service to the school community and much more.
