With Covid-19 measures easing up in the Netherlands, we are glad to organize on-campus events and classes again. As such it was a special moment to welcome the new students on the MSM campus again during the Official Opening of the Academic Year 2021-2022. We recently completed two Executive Education programs, Project Finance and Project Management. In this newsletter you can read how participants have experienced these programs. In addition, the newsletter features several MBA student and alumni stories demonstrating how MSM’s Executive MBA, Online MBA and Full-time MBA contributed to their respective careers. Best wishes, |
