The CEM Masters in International Management programme has climbed to fourth place in this year’s Global Masters in Management (MiM) ranking, produced by the Financial Times.
The ranking, published on Monday 14th, September, lists the best Masters in Management programmes offered by business schools around the world each year.
The CEMS MiM, which is run through a partnership of 29 leading business schools and universities around the world (for Belgium: Louvain School of Management), has climbed three places in the last two years, and has been included in the top 10 every year since the ranking was established.
Furthermore, 21 of CEMS partner institutions (including, of course, the Belgian Louvain School of Management), are included in this year ranking.
“CEMS is honoured to be recognized as the reference for Masters in Management on a global scale. Together with our member schools, we strive to bring to fruition the business degree of the future, and to graduate leaders that are making a positive impact in the challenging times ahead - not only for businesses, but for humankind.“ –Roland Siegers, CEMS Executive Director
Established in December 1988 by four prominent European schools (ESADE, HEC Paris, Università Bocconi and the University of Cologne), and joined the year after by Belgium (Louvain School of Management), the CEMS alliance pioneered the first truly European business education through one single master degree. The programme blends academic excellence with real-life business practice in a global, multi-cultural setting.
Today, CEMS has grown to become a global alliance, catering to more than 1200 students from over 72 nationalities each year (among them, around 40 Belgians every year). As well as business schools, CEMS encompasses some of the world’s best known organisations, counting almost 70 corporate and four social partners among its members.
“Belgium is very proud to be part of this world leading programme, without any competitor in consideration of business relevance and employment prospects. The Louvain School of Management will certainly increase the number of participating students, including from Vlanders”, according to Prof. Dr. Michel De Wolf, Dean, Louvain School of Management.
