Graduation ceremony at Maastricht School of Management

The Maastricht School of Management (MsM) has its roots in the Institute for Management Science at The Technical University in Delft dating back to 1952. In 1989 the school relocated to the historical city of Maastricht and in 1993 its name changed to Maastricht School of Management. Worldwide, more than 2500 participants from over 30 different countries graduate every year as either Master or Doctor in Business Administration, or have obtained a Diploma from one of Maastricht School of Management’s Executive Programs.
The global business environment of today needs executives who recognize global trends and respond successfully to them. The Maastricht School of Management’s MBA program raises the standards of management knowledge and practice through the study and understanding of management theory based on empirical research. MBA participants are given the opportunity to share their expertise with fellow students and faculty members all over the world. An innovative and stimulating learning environment is created, in which the participants’ knowledge and skills are continuously challenged both inside and outside the classroom.
MsM is a globally networked management school that provides state of the art management education to managers and young professionals from many different backgrounds. Its objective is to enhance professional competence and enrich the lives and careers of those involved in the practice of management.
The Maastricht School of Management has been accredited by the Association of Collegiate Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP) as well as the International Assembly for Collegiate Business Education (IACBE). The main prerequisite for admission to the Maastricht School of Management MBA Program is a sound academic background. Applicants must hold a least a Bachelor’s degree or its academic equivalent from a recognized university. In some instances, MsM may offer admission to highly qualified candidates with professional equivalent. Proficiency in English is considered absolutely essential to complete the MBA Programme. Preference will be given to candidates with at least three years working experience.
