RSM’s other MBA programmes already have AMBA recognition among others in the school’s ‘triple crown’ of accreditations, one of only a few international business schools to have this.
The Cologne-Rotterdam Executive MBA programme, which is primarily delivered in Cologne, Germany, prepares leaders from any business or industry background for senior management challenges and responsibilities, in local and international business arenas. The format involves studying every other weekend, and fits around the lifestyles of executives without interrupting their day-to-day work. Successful participants receive two degrees at the end of the studies from two renowned business schools.
The programme is highly selective, so participants become part of a unique network of globally-orientated managers. Teaching and visiting faculty are among the top academics in the world and present the latest scientific research in a way that is designed for practical application in business during the academically rigorous programme.
“We are pleased that the first cohort started successfully with great candidates last September and look forward to the second cohort in 2017. The programme offers an innovative, highly international and flexible learning experience of the highest quality,” says Prof. Ulrich Thonemann, managing director of the Business School of the University of Cologne.
Academic Director of the Cologne-Rotterdam MBA, Professor Steffen Giessner adds: “The new AMBA accreditation underlines the excellent quality and reputation – and the international orientation – of both schools and the quality of the Cologne-Rotterdam EMBA.”
Diversity
Participants come from a broad range of sectors such as consulting and professional services; chemical and pharmacy; logistics and supply chain; software; energy and utilities; financial services and insurances; health and medical science; manufacturing and construction; and engineering and law.
