Degree

Logo MSMThe CBS Executive MBA programme in cooperation with the Maastricht School of Management (MSM) completes the MSM with the internationally recognised MBA (Master of Business Administration). This is a qualification for top management positions in the global field.


Businesses value not only the well-founded professional know-how of MBA alumni but especially their foreign language knowledge, intercultural competence and practically-put-to-the-test team abilities. The MBA also gives you the necessary knowledge to start your own business and the essential (international) contacts.

The MBA was first accorded in 1902 at Dartmouth College in New Hampshire (USA) – to seven students. At that time it was called ‘Master of Commercial Sciences’. It was only over the years that the present name Master of Business Administration has prevailed.
