Part of Rotterdam University

 

Rotterdam Business School is the international business school of Rotterdam University, which offers graduate and undergraduate programmes in seven fields: art, technology, media and information technology, health, behaviour and society, education and, of course, business.

 

Within this framework, Rotterdam Business School leads the way in presenting a wide range of business and management programmes available in English, the lingua franca of international business.

 

Three specialised master programmes are available: Master in Finance and Accounting, Master in Consultancy and Entrepreneurship, Master in Logistics Management. All three are one-year, fulltime programmes.

 

Programme structure

 

The master’s programmes are built on three pillars:

  • - education
  • - research
  • - personal development

 

The curriculum consists of core, specialisation and elective modules. Students can to a large degree determine their own course while developing all the necessary knowledge, skills and competencies of a professional in international business.

 

Research is the focus of the final stage of our programmes. Students complete their studies with a thesis research project, which can revolve around a theoretical subject or a project executed for an existing organisation.

 

Personal development is encouraged through a system that invites students to set their own particular study goals – and continually test those choices. Progress in developing the necessary competencies is measured in cooperation with a personal development coach and various student groups.

 

Master in Finance and Accounting

 

Finance and accounting professionals play an increasingly active role in modern businesses. Managerial decision-making depends on professionals with a financial approach, who take in account behavioural aspects, describe and analyse problems of choice and provide the background and tools for razor-sharp analysis.

 

A degree in Finance & Accounting puts our graduates right at the heart of industrial change, where they will be able to fully utilise their analytical skills.

 

Master in Consultancy and Entrepreneurship

 

The first thing that is required of a consultant is a genuine understanding of the nature of the client/consultant relationship. This sets the parameters for the task of recognising opportunities, anticipating pitfalls and proposing innovative solutions. In short, managing change.

 

The success of our graduates’ careers is reflected in the success of the businesses they support.

 

Master in Logistics Management

 

Excellence in logistics is fast becoming a key factor in companies’ competitive advantage. Companies worldwide spend up to 20 or 30 percent of their overall costs on logistics, while proficiency in logistics is demanded in management positions throughout organisations.

 

In sectors as varied as transport, production and banking, a degree in Logistics Management will gain our graduates a place at the heart of decision-making, right up to boardroom level.
