INTERNATIONAL MBA Programme (parttime/fulltime) in the centre of Amsterdam

Honouring a tradition in business studies that goes back to 1867, the HES Amsterdam School of Business is one of the largest institutes of professional business education in the Netherlands. Recently the Hogeschool van Amsterdam (University of Professional Education) and the HES Amsterdam School of Business (HES) merged into one organisation. Four institutes for business studies have become one school with the name HES School of Economics and Business.

As one of the merged institutes HES School of Economics Business maintains contacts with some 90 different partner institutions abroad in more than 29 different countries.

HES School of Economics and Business believes that a student should not only have a certain level of academic ability, but should also be able to do. This combination of theory and practice not only stimulates a direct application of theoretical knowledge, but also at the same time promotes critical assessment of the suitability of scientific concepts to daily business life. Students are placed in situations which are very similar to those faced regularly by managers in business. They must make important decisions, under considerable time pressure, and often with very limited information. The three pillars of personal development, knowledge acquisition and the transferral of that knowledge into practical situations are central to the International MBA Programme at HES School of Economics and Business, Post-Graduate Programmes.

Thanks to the core skills developed by our courses, alumni will be in a significantly better position as managers to being solving difficult problems in an uncertain global environment. They will be able to anticipate and adapt to changes and have the capacity to deal with complex international issues. HES Post-Graduate Programmes maintains close contact with a number of internationally based companies to ensure that the course content and result of the programme meet the needs of international business. A number of senior managers of these companies have committed themselves to advise and provide feedback on the quality of the programme on a regular basis.

We are looking forward to offering our students a solid horizon broadening programme which focuses on personal management skills and a cross cultural way of doing business. Our strong image is based on the quality of our lecturers, a close contact with the business world and the awareness of personal growth and competencies which will take our students to a next level both in their personal life as in the international business world.
