September was a great month at MSM. We started the new academic year with a fantastic graduation, with 144 students from more than 30 nationalities receiving their degrees. This was followed by our 5th Annual Research Conference, organized in collaboration with the German Development Institute and Austrian Foundation for Development. Following quick on the heels of our fresh graduates, we then welcomed around 90 new students who will be studying at our Maastricht campus – a new MBA cohort, participants in our executive programs, and moreover the first students in our new Master in Management program. Soon we will also welcome the new intakes in our M.Sc in Management and Engineering that we offer in partnership with RWTH Aachen University, and our recruitment for our new Executive MBA program – with specializations in Sports Management, Healthcare Management and International Business & Sustainable Development will start. You can read about these highlights of the month and more in this edition of our newsletter. Read further >
