Rotterdam Business School (reviews)

Academics at Rotterdam Business School

Rotterdam Business School offers an International Business course, which lasts 4 years. During this period, International Business students develop skills and knowledge in three areas: Business, Languages and Academic and Professional Development. The following languages are offered by the Business School: Dutch, French, German, Spanish, Russian, Indonesian, Mandarin and Japanese. During the first year, the International Business course outlines the main aspects of the global business environment. In this way, students understand the nature of international business and choose which aspect of it they want to specialise in during their second year. The choice is between four international business options – Organisation & Change, Supply Chain, Commerce or Marketing. During the last two year, Rotterdam Business students are allowed to spend at least one semester developing their skills abroad. Two alternatives are available to students in the last two years of their degree – exchange year at one of the University’s partners or internship at an International Company. At the end of the fourth year, students develop a plan for supporting a real business client, which allows them to apply their skills and knowledge in the real business world.

Rotterdam Business School offers three Master’s Programmes – Consultancy and Entrepreneurship, Finance and Accounting and Supply Chain Management. All Master courses one-year long.

Campus & Student Life

Rotterdam Business School’s building is located near other University buildings, which makes it really easy for students to create friendships with people not only within the Business School but also with people that do non-business related courses at the University.

There are several restaurants and cafeterias in the area, which enable students to take a break from studying while having some delicious food and hanging out with friends.

The proximity of Rotterdam Business School to the nearby park and river, makes them a great destination for students to enjoy both the sunny and not so sunny days in Rotterdam. Football (soccer) lovers may be intrigued by the Schaatsbaan Rotterdam, which is close to campus.

Rotterdam Business School is quite active on social media (Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn), which gives students and potential candidates quick online access to information about the School and its activities.

Career & Alumni

Rotterdam Business School aims to provide Business students with the opportunity to work on real life projects and go on internships. The School is open to new proposals from companies who need highly-motivated students to support their work.

The School offers graduates who go back to their home countries the opportunity to become Alumni Ambassadors and help preserve the connections between alumni and the University.
