Location of TiasNimbas Business School Utrecht
The TiasNimbas MScBA is NVAO accredited. NVAO (in Dutch: Nederlands-Vlaamse Accreditatieorganisatie) is the Accreditation Organisation of The Netherlands and Flanders.
Imagine brainstorming ideas and developing solutions with the brightest and most motivated students from your bachelor programme. Add to that a contingent of high-achieving students from schools all over the world, and you have a good idea of our International MSc in Business Administration programme classroom.
Around 50 percent of all students in our International MSc in Business Administration programme come from abroad, while the other half is internationally-minded Dutch nationals. Most have no professional experience and come straight from their bachelor degree, while a proportion has a couple of years work experience. All have strong academic records, and each has chosen TiasNimbas as the place to kick-start their international business careers.
A high-level of intellectual debate in class combined with teamwork throughout the programme will bring you head-to-head with the contrasting ideas of your classmates – ideas that oppose and challenge you philosophically, morally, and culturally, encouraging the development of a much broader view on business around the world.
