about studies

MSM offers its MBA programs abroad in partnership with respected educational institutions. The MBA degree is internationally accredited by AMBA, IACBE, ACBSP, highly ranked (#2 in the Netherlands) and based on MSM’s unique sixty-year experience of management and business promotion across the world.

 

Established in 1952, the Maastricht School of Management (MSM) is one of the oldest and most international management schools in the Netherlands. Its first MBA program was offered in 1983 in The Netherlands. Since the late 1990s Maastricht School of Management’s programs are increasingly offered across the globe and currently MSM offers its MBA programs in 13 countries, among others: China, Azerbaijan, Peru, Vietnam or Germany.

Having been a global player in management education for more than 60 years, MSM understands that management education is not so much about internationalization per se anymore. It is after all, the age of social media – and hence it is a standard requirement for a top class business school to be global. What management education needs now, more than ever, is substance. It is all about quality and relevance. And quality and relevance requires being constantly in touch, constantly innovating, always understanding the fundamental challenges and opportunities that managers, entrepreneurs and other decision-makers face. This is MSM. Old in years, but young in spirit; located in Europe, but present in the world; working with business, but working for people. In a time where crisis, greed and exploitation of human and natural resources are all too frequently headline news, we have been a passionate champion of sustainability – social, environmental and business sustainability.
