MScBA Master in Management

In this one-year master programme, you build on your specialised knowledge from your bachelor degree and gain a comprehensive understanding of general management and business administration. An RSM Master in Management degree equips you with the skills and confidence you need to kickstart your career in the business world.

Throughout this programme, you collaborate with classmates who, like you, come from diverse academic backgrounds. This creates a valuable learning environment where you can tap into each other's experiences and knowledge. Through a combination of academic theory, interactive classroom sessions and team assignments, you evolve into a full-fledged business professional. 

While this full-time programme demands hard work, graduates often describe it as an intense yet highly rewarding experience. The curriculum includes lectures, group projects and assignments. In addition, your instructors encourage open discussions and practical application of business knowledge. You not only gain a strong grasp of theory, but you also learn how to immediately and accurately apply business concepts in real-world scenarios.

Programme highlights

You learn from the diverse perspectives of your peers, enrich your educational experience and expand your understanding of the subject matter.

  • Broaden your horizons

    Challenge yourself to combine your previous academic knowledge with the latest business knowledge and skills in an international and diverse classroom, to become a critical and well-grounded business professional.

  • Practical experience

    Real-life consultancy assignments with prestigious organisations put you in direct contact with the real business world. You gain the ability to communicate with business people, and a keenness to go the extra mile as you develop solutions for our participating corporations.  

More about the programme

Hear from our current students

MiM offers a variety of interesting courses that cover all major business areas, and they are taught in an interesting and engaging way. RSM helps me think about my career and how I can contribute to positive change with my work. I also learn from other students, who come from different study backgrounds. The people in associations can make you feel at home very quickly. Rotterdam is a lively city, and the campus feels like a student district with its study spaces, gym, theater, and restaurants. You can cycle everywhere and enjoy the peaceful nature as well.
