Introduction

After the summer holidays, MSM immediately had the opportunity to celebrate many milestones. The MBA and Master in Management programmes again received re-accreditation of the Association of MBAs (AMBA). In September, we also celebrated the successes of the MBA and Master in Management students during the annual Graduation Ceremony. Missed the Graduation Ceremony? You can find a link to the recap video later on in the newsletter.

With every end comes a new beginning! A few weeks later, we welcomed a group of 39 full-time MBA students, as well as 32 Master in Management students in the two-week introduction programme. A programme filled with interactive workshops, teambuilding exercises, and a session revolving around the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We were also thrilled to host two cohorts of our joint Executive MBA programme with Nanjing University, with students benefiting from immersive guest lectures and work visits.

In addition, the Short Executive Programme Personal Leadership Skills was succesfully completed. A 5-day programme developed to enhance personal leadership and management styles, combining theoretical concepts and practical exercises. Would you also like to keep your knowledge and skills up to date and relevant? Have a look at the upcoming application deadlines of some of the in total fifteen Short Executive Programmes we offer!

We are also proud to share that the MSM Expert Centre on Emerging Economies has been granted many new projects. In this newsletter, you can read more about our projects in Kenya, Burundi and Ghana.
