Introduction

We are proud to yet again start the newsletter with a ranking. MSM is recognized as a Tier One Business School in the CEO Magazine 2021 Global MBA ranking, including top worldwide rankings for our Executive MBA and Online MBA programs.

In this newsletter, we are also pleased to report a new capacity-building collaboration with the Islamic Development Bank on Global Value Chain and to give you the latest updates on our ongoing training projects in Burundi, Mali and Mozambique.

We also hear from students from our full-time MBA, Executive MBA and Online MBA programs on their experience gained during our annual practice-oriented MBA Summer School and from Dr. Stephanie Jones on the benefits of working with diverse teams.

For those interested in the finance of development projects or the potential of e-Government, make sure to read the interviews with participants who recently covered these topics in the Executive Education programs.

Finally, please note the upcoming deadlines for our Master in Management, full-time MBA, Executive MBA, Research Methods and Skills, and Executive Education programs, all coming up in the next few weeks.

With this, we wish you all a well-deserved and safe summer holiday and we look forward to seeing you in September, hopefully as much face-to-face as possible!
