I am expecting to receive offer from PBS for their full time one-year MBA program. I only speak basic Portugese at present. How is the program viewed in the Portugal corporate world? Are graduates from PBS MBA able to find decent jobs in Portugal after completion of the program? And what about jobs for English speakers? I have already started taking Portugese classes but I know I won't be able to speak it fluently by the completion of the program.

My target is to stay back and work in Portugal post MBA. Looking forward to getting some insights.

This isn't really a question about Porto but about you learning Portuguese. It doesn't matter how good Porto is (and it's excellent) if you don't speak a high level of the language before you start the degree. See: Do you need to speak the local language? www.find-mba.com/board/34713 

Thanks Duncan! I was expecting your reply actually.

So language skills not withstanding for a moment, PBS is a great school for getting an international MBA, right? 

I considered taking either their MBI or EMIB, so I respect it. However, studying where you want to work would be best. It's a no-name school outside Portugal.

This all depends on your goals. I imagine that an English-language programme on Lisbon may be the worst place to improve your Portuguese.
