RSM offers an English language premaster programme for students who will / have completed a bachelor degree at an accredited University of Applied Sciences in Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Germany, The Netherlands (HBO) Norway, Sweden and Switzerland.
RSM also welcomes students to the premaster who have completed their bachelor at a research university, but are missing the required content in qualitative & quantitative research methods and statistics.
This one-year premaster programme equips students to join one of RSM's MSc programmes. To ensure the best preparation, students should complete all programme requirements within a maximum of two years. Completing the requirements within two years will ensure that all grades and credits remain valid and contribute to your academic progress.
All exams and lectures are given online.
Lectures are scheduled on Thursdays or Fridays.
The exams generally take place on Fridays and/or Saturdays, but in some cases on weekdays. Keep a close eye on timetables to stay informed.
Successful completion of the premaster programme does not result in a bachelor diploma or other certificate, but gives you a ‘proof of eligibility’ to (some of) the RSM's 12-month Master programmes, which must be redeemed within one year.
The content of your bachelor degree will determine which MSc programmes you may participate in following successful completion of the premaster. During the premaster admissions process, the RSM admissions office will determine which MSc programmes you may participate in.
You can also apply for the 18-month MSc International Management/CEMS programme, but admission is not guaranteed as this programme has an extra selection procedure.
The wellbeing and safety of our students is very important for Erasmus University Rotterdam, and therefore we have multiple initiatives to support personal development, provide mental health resources and enhance overall student experience.
